Hi,
we are experiecing the exact same issue. PBi Desktop will not conenct to a live SSMD instance unless you also provie the (optional) database name.
Unfortunately, for our exting content packs there is no way to edit the datasource settings and specify the server and database! So we cannot update our existing content packs at the moment which has led to a decrease in satisfaction by the business users and also us the technical team.
We have not had luck with a solution yet.

Hello, the problem is because you have on the MD istance some MD databases that are not processed.
Just process all the unprocessed MD databases and retry.

Wow thank you! We did have unprocessed SSAS dbs.
Cant believe that could be an issue.
