No Notifications in Lollypop using bspwm
I've been using lollypop music player for a while, on Arch + bspwm
Only problem is that,
It is not sending out notifications ( on Song Change specifically ), other notifications work, ie album add/update .
And somehow it is bspwm specific.
Using Pure Gnome/Xfce/i3 only : notifications work ( shows up in dbus-monitor and on screen)
Using Xfce with bspwm / bspwm only : notifications don't work ( no event of notifications in dbus-monitor on song change and screen )

Re: No Notifications in Lollypop using bspwm
Does lollypop always show a notification or only if it is unfocused? Maybe bspwm does not properly remove the focus.

Re: No Notifications in Lollypop using bspwm
As per the gitlab page, lollypop doesn't show notifications when it is focused, so it could be the problem. But how to deal with it ?
Edit : I tried unmanaging the lollypop window and shifted the focus to the other, but still same behaviour

this was the problem indeed, lollypop perform a check whether the window is focused or not, somehow, in bspwm it always seem to return yes to the query
