Just one last comment...

I also installed Gnome and Mate as desktop managers and I experience the
very same issues on Guix System.

To complete the picture, this is the relevant section of my (quite
basic) config.scm:

  ;; Packages installed system-wide.  Users can also install packages
  ;; under their own account: use 'guix search KEYWORD' to search
  ;; for packages and 'guix install PACKAGE' to install a package.
  (packages (append (list (specification->package "i3-wm")
                          (specification->package "i3status")
                          (specification->package "dmenu")
                          (specification->package "st")
                          (specification->package "emacs")
                          (specification->package "emacs-exwm")
                          (specification->package
                           "emacs-desktop-environment"))
                    %base-packages))

  (services
   (append
    %desktop-services
    (list
     ;; (service dhcp-client-service-type) ; provided by %desktop-services

     (service cups-service-type)

     (set-xorg-configuration
      (xorg-configuration (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)))

     (service gnome-desktop-service-type)
     (service mate-desktop-service-type)

This is the guix pull I'm using:
