sshd systemd service can not start.

Issue: When trying to start the sshd service, the command hangs and does not complete.

How to reproduce:

Run the following command. This was tested on Arch-Linux-x86_64-basic-20230326.137924.qcow2 sudo systemctl enable --now sshd

Workaround:

According to the sshd.service file, the ExecStart is /usr/bin/sshd -D. If you run sudo /usr/bin/sshd -D & this will successfully start the daemon in the background and ssh is possible.
