[Pkg-mpd-maintainers] Bug#813754: Bug#813754: Can't open port 6600 when run syste, -wide vis systemd

mpd uses systemd's socket activation feature, as defined in
/lib/systemd/system/mpd.socket, so port 6600 should be open and you
should see systemd listening there until the first connection is
actually made.

What is the netstat output after system startup? Does 'systemctl status
mpd.socket' tell you what's wrong?
