Issue: Absence of [module/pulseaudio]
Display in Polybar
Greetings everyone! I trust you’re all doing well.
It’s been a while since I last reached out for assistance, as everything had been running smoothly on my Endeavour OS (i3WM) setup.
Overview of Configuration:
I’m utilizing a dual monitor setup, and to initialize Polybar on both monitors, I rely on the following startup script:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
polybar-msg cmd quit
if type "xrandr"; then
for m in $(xrandr --query | grep " connected" | cut -d" " -f1); do
MONITOR=$m polybar --reload bar1 &
done
else
polybar --reload bar1 &
fi
Moreover, the excerpt below from config.ini
showcases the configuration details for the pulseaudio
module:
...
...
modules-right = filesystem custom_mem cpu pulseaudio battery date
...
...
[module/pulseaudio]
type = internal/pulseaudio
click-right = pavucontrol
format-volume-foreground = ${colors.primary}
format-volume = <ramp-volume> <label-volume>
format-muted = <label-muted> <label-volume>
label-volume = %{T4}%percentage%%%{T-}
label-volume-foreground = ${colors.foreground}
label-muted =
label-muted-foreground = ${colors.disabled}
ramp-volume-0 =
ramp-volume-1 =
ramp-volume-2 =
ramp-volume-3 =
ramp-volume-4 =
ramp-volume-5 =

Issue Description:
Despite maintaining the same configuration for the past few months without any alterations to the Polybar setup, the [module/pulseaudio]
has abruptly ceased to display. While all other modules continue to function as expected, this particular module has vanished from view. I’ve diligently reviewed the configuration but have been unable to pinpoint the cause of this behavior. Additionally, I’m confident that all necessary dependencies, such as libpulse
, required to utilize and exhibit this module, are installed.
If you’re inclined to review my Dotfiles, please feel free to do so.
