Pa-applet cant reach XF86 volume bindings

Open sulekh-kulatunga opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

image Hello, there, I found this error both on the AUR build, as well after having compiled from source, the applet runs in polybar, but doesn't have the ability to change the volume.

Failed to grab XF86AudioRaiseVolume

Failed to grab XF86AudioLowerVolume

Failed to grab XF86AudioMute

I am running pulseaudio 16.1, and the applet is running on polybar 3.6.3. I have already set all 3 required volumebindings with Xbindkeys, and my Function volume keybindings work, although I had to set them explicitly, and didn't work from the start.

I think it fails because another program already grabbed those keys. E.g. I got the same error messages when I ran two instances of pa-applet.
