That still wouldn't explain the one after gaara's death (maybe) or that might just be tied to his actual insomnia. (Why not have both problems? Uhh lol?) and when taking iron sand manipulation guys, their kekkei genkai might just be working different? (which I was trying to look into). Gaara had the eye rings since he was born (I was wrong to attribute it to insomnia). At his birth, his mother was still alive (though not for long), meaning the eye rings have nothing to do with sand manipulation. Sand is just powdered rock, it has nothing to do with magnetic forces. Sand manipulation is not Magnet Release

But then there'd be no explanation for Rasa's Gold Dust manipulation unless of course Rasa is using something that can be traced back to Shukaku. Also, iirc Gaara was born with shukaku inside him? I may be wrong about that. Anyway, it was said in the series itself that Shukaku's jinchurikis suffer from insomnia.
