I've tried to workaround XDG_RUNTIME_DIR with a hack:

And that now gives the following .local/share/sddm/wayland-session.log:

And I also retried with sddm+seatd+manual-seatd instead of
sddm+elogind+manual-seatd and rebooted after that, and it didn't work so
I might have tested that wrong. The later still work though.
The first error is from libseat which is used by wlroots which
is used by sway:

For this one I could look if we have the right methods on the session
dbus.
The second one is from libseat_open:

It first tries to get the backend from the environment.
And then if no LIBSEAT_BACKEND is set, it goes try all the backends
and returns the first valid one or prints the error we have:
