QEMU issue when running the l4t-base docker image

I’m building a robot and I want to dockerize my SDK. Im running ubuntu 20.04 as my host operating system on a x86_64 CPU. Since this is an x86_64 CPU, I installed QEMU packages ( qemu binfmt-support qemu-user-static ) and then wrote my SDK dockerfile and built it. No issues building. While running, I used the following docker run command:

docker run -it --rm --network=host \
        -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY \
        -e TERM \
        -e QT_X11_NO_MITSHM=1\
        -e XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.docker.xauth \
        -v /tmp/.docker.xauth:/tmp/.docker.xauth \
        -v /tmp/.X11-unix/:/tmp/.X11-unix \
        -v ${WORKSPACE}/:/workspaces/beertender_robot/ \
        -v /usr/bin/qemu-aarch64-static:/usr/bin/qemu-aarch64-static \
        --gpus all \
        --platform linux/aarch64 \
        --runtime nvidia \
        venkisagunner93/sdk-base:latest

I’m able to enter the docker container when I run the above command. But when I execute roscore command. I get the following errors:

root@3po:/# roscore

Then I went ahead and removed --net=host from my docker run command and the error went away. The problem here is, if I take out host network, I won’t be able to listen to the topics running in the robot. Any thoughts on how to fix this problem is much appreciated. Thanks!

If you want to reproduce the issue here is the docker image: docker pull venkisagunner93/sdk-base:latest
