The issue is about the location of plugins. I am not 100% sure about why old location start failing
which is - /home/zuul/src/opendev.org/openstack/tempest-horizon

But it will fix by updating the location to /opt/stack/tempest-horizon where devstack already check out the
plugins. 

Either you can update the location[1] or move to use new var 'tempest_plugins' which is easy and much readable
along with fixing the issue.
