gtk.css settings not being parsed

I've just done a fresh install, setup a minimal desktop environment (awesome) installed firefox and a theme. Everything is working great except gtk.css settings are not being parsed.

I created the file ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css and added the settings.

tooltip {
   opacity: 0;
}

I know the settings work from my previous install. Problem is the settings aren't being parsed and I'm not sure why?

Re: gtk.css settings not being parsed

Firefox probably uses gtk in strange ways. You just solved it yesterday?

Re: gtk.css settings not being parsed

I have installed a fresh system since yesterday, I had everything working but decided to do a clean install. My previous install was full of junk I didn't need/want. I'd had it for some time. I just started a fresh.

I think I'm missing a package to get .config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css working. I must of had whatever that package was on my previous install but have no idea what it could be.

For some reason the settings in .config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css don't get read.
