I don’t think it’s a user problem, since you are being prompted for the
password of the user michele, not root. Also, you clearly specify
michele@ in the mount call.

Running the command as root is definitely the right way of debugging
this. You may want to increase verbosity, i.e. add the LogLevel=DEBUG2
option.

It does sound more and more like this is not actually a systemd bug,
though. Do you agree that we can close this and you’ll get your SSH
setup fixed? There’s debian-users for support like that.
