Enabling systemd service doesn't make it auto start #8

Description

➜  ~ systemctl status prelockd.service
● prelockd.service - Daemon that locks executables/libraries in memory
     Loaded: loaded (/usr/local/lib/systemd/system/prelockd.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
     Active: inactive (dead)
       Docs: man:prelockd(8)

Manually systemctl start prelockd.service works, but it won't be started automatically on boot.
The only thing I did was enabling this service, everything else stays untouched.
Other enabled multi-user.target.wants services start when boot, only prelockd and nohang had this issue. (both have similar goal)
Very annoying to reproduce as it requires a boot cycle.
Occurs on both my laptop and desktop, both running openSUSE, this could be a distro issue but I was unable to look into this further, dmesg and journalctl shows nothing about the issue, it behaves as if the service was not enabled.
