i ran "ln -s ospd-openvas.sock ospd.sock" and scans are starting now

I came across this too and it looks like a missmatch in /usr/bin/gvm-setup
change this in /usr/bin/gvm-setup

if ! runuser -u _gvm -- gvmd --get-scanners | grep /run/ospd/ospd.sock; then

echo -e "${GREEN}[*]${RESET} Modifying Default Scanner"

runuser -u _gvm -- gvmd --modify-scanner=08b69003-5fc2-4037-a479-93b440211c73 --scanner-host=/run/ospd/ospd.sock

to

if ! runuser -u _gvm -- gvmd --get-scanners | grep /run/ospd/ospd-openvas.sock; then

echo -e "${GREEN}[*]${RESET} Modifying Default Scanner"

runuser -u _gvm -- gvmd --modify-scanner=08b69003-5fc2-4037-a479-93b440211c73 --scanner-host=/run/ospd/ospd-openvas.sock

and run setup again
