You can't. Most of the Gnome stuff nowadays heavily depends on systemctl 
--user which doesn't work when $HOME is in /afs (because systemd starts 
the systemctl --user separate from the user session and thus it doesn't 
get a token at login). Unfortunately, systemd folks are not willing to 
fix this nonsense.

SDDM works fine, though.

HTH...
