Thank you again. Yes, I just blindly assumed that no arguments required no setup.

My issue now is parsing "oa{sa{sv}}" as matched by the Bluez InterfacesAdded signal.
I believe this extends to parsing any nested dictionary.
I tried looking in 'unit/*' for examples, however they only parse string keys, not the actual nested dictionary.

Consider my example code:

static void cb(struct l_dbus_message *msg, void *user_data) {
  struct l_dbus_message_iter root_keys_iter, device_keys_iter = {0};
  struct l_dbus_message_iter root_values_iter, device_values_iter = {0};
  bool argument_received = false;

  const char *object = NULL;
  bool have_msg = l_dbus_message_get_arguments(msg, "oa{sa{sv}}", &object, &root_keys_iter);
  if (have_msg) {
    while (true) {
      const char *root_key = NULL;
      argument_received = l_dbus_message_iter_next_entry(&root_keys_iter, &root_key, &root_values_iter);
      if (!argument_received) break;

      if (strcmp(root_key, "org.bluez.Device1") == 0) {
        argument_received = l_dbus_message_iter_get_variant(&root_values_iter, "a{sv}", &device_keys_iter);
        if (argument_received) {
          break;
        } else {
          printf("org.bluez.Device1 dict expected but not received\n");
          exit(1);
        }
      }
    }
  } else {
    printf("InterfacesAdded dict expected but not received\n");
    exit(1);
  }
}

The message "org.bluez.Device1 dict expected but not received" was printed. Why?
