There are actually two bugs withing a single one here. The first one is
that you could not connect to the berlin publish server in less than 5
seconds (the timeout duration).
I have already observed such problems on the build farm and reported it
here: https://issues.guix.gnu.org/48468. It has been mitigated by
implementing keep-alive support[1]. However, I suppose that the
underlying issue is that guix-publish is in some cases over-flood and
fails to accept new connections.

The second issue is that as you noticed, the fallback option doesn't
have any effect.
Thanks,
