Not working on Linux with awesomeWM

Open timvisee opened this issue 5 years ago • 22 comments

The extension does not seem to be working for my configuration. I'm using a Linux machine running Ubuntu 18.04 with the awesomeWM display manager (so no, that isn't GNOME). Along with that, I'm using an Ergodox Infinity keyboard configured with a MediaPlay key. I believe this is the standard play/pause key, but I'm not entirely sure. The key does work for playing/pausing music in Rhythmbox. Anyhow, I don't believe the keyboard is the problem.

Pressing the MediaPlay button does not trigger anything within the browser, neither when I focus a Deezer page for example. I there a possibility to fix this? What does the add-on depend on when using it with GNOME?

If my keyboard configuration might be relevant, here it is: https://github.com/timvisee/dotfiles/tree/e44a6e579843874212819d425d7df6e6131faa9b/ergodox

Here are my general system specifications, if relevant: neofetch
