You could test with 0.21.0_p20250326 as an additional data point.
Please check if you updated all config files. If that doesn't help, try if downgrading to 0.21.0_p20250326 or 0.21.0_p20240723-r10 changes anything. (Make sure to update config files).
dispatch-conf doesn't return anything. Testing whether it works properly (all settings remain default): 0.21.0_p20240723-r10: work 0.21.0_p20250326: not work 0.21.0_p20250502: not work

It works fine for me under systemd w/ the previous state, but the commit should bring us back to what we did in the last stable version. Please test that once it hits your mirrors.
