Controller running in LXD fails to deploy workloads in Microk8s cloud. Invalid storage name

I have a host running LXD (5.0.2), strictly confined Microk8s (v1.27.4) and juju (3.2.0). The controller is running in a LXD container and after slight tinkering* I was able to add microk8s cloud to the controller. I'm able to add models and deploy applications that (I assume) don't require persistent storage like "catalogue"[0]. "modeloperator" pod also starts up correctly. However deployment of apps like "prometheus-k8s"[1] fail with following error in juju logs

controller-0: 13:42:41 ERROR juju.worker.caasapplicationprovisioner.runner exited "prometheus": ensuring application "prometheus": StorageClass.storage.k8s.io "monitoring-" is invalid: [metadata.name: Invalid value: "monitoring-": a lowercase RFC 1123 subdomain must consist of lower case alphanumeric characters, '-' or '.', and must start and end with an alphanumeric character (e.g. 'example.com', regex used for validation is '[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?(\.[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?)*'), provisioner: Required value]
controller-0: 13:42:41 INFO juju.worker.caasapplicationprovisioner.runner restarting "prometheus" in 3s

It appears to me that juju fails to properly compose name when requesting storage? The "monitoring" name mentioned in the above logs is the name of the juju model.

*Steps to reproduce:

  * Bootstrap Juju controller into LXD container
  * Install strictly confined microk8s (--channel 1.27-strict/stable)
  * Manually add credentials to microk8s cloud via "juju add-credential microk8s"
    * type should be "oauth2" and token value can be found in output of "microk8s.config" command
  * Edit client config in /var/snap/microk8s/current/credentials/client.config . Change clusters.cluster.server value to point to the main host's IP, rather than localhost
  * Add cloud to the controller via "juju add-cloud -c <controller_name> microk8s"
  * Add model and deploy both "catalogue"[0] and "prometheus-k8s"[1] charms

Result should be that catalogue gets deployed but prometheus gets into error state with above log messages in "juju debug-log" output.
