[SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Hello
As the title says when I run those two from service(systemd) or xinitrc, playerctl -l shows no output (which I expect to be mpd)

But when I run an instance of those two in terminal they work as expected and playerctl -l also shows mpd in its output.

Has anyone faced such an issue?

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Please post your xinitrc and the output of 

loginctl session-status

As for the systemd service: session or user? And did you confirm the service status?

For systemd I enabled the service (--user) rebooted and also tested with not enabling service and just starting them at my current session and yes checked their status and they were enabled and running without any error.

And This is the output for having mpDris2 ran from xinitrc

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

xinitrc is relevant and looks broken (session bus daemon inside the session) => post your xinitrc.

Probably unrelated but you might also want to look into why ~/.config/x11/xinitrc is sourced multiple times by itself…

Not exactly sure why it's being sourced several times!!!
xinitrc 

#!/bin/sh

if [[ -f /usr/bin/prime-offload ]]; then
   /usr/bin/prime-offload
fi


if [ -f "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xprofile" ]; then
	. "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/x11/xprofile"
else
	. "$HOME/.xprofile"
fi

# Activate dbus variables
dbus-update-activation-environment --all
dbus-launch ssh-agent dwm

if [[ -f /usr/bin/prime-switch ]]; then
	sudo /usr/bin/prime-switch
fi

and this is xprofile located in x11 folder

#!/bin/sh

xrandr --dpi 96	# Set DPI. User may want to use a larger number for larger screens.
setbg &			# set the background with the `setbg` script

autostart="mpd goldendict picom dunst unclutter pipewire remapd mpDris2"

for program in $autostart; do
	pidof -sx "$program" || "$program" &
done >/dev/null 2>&1

# Ensure that xrdb has finished running before moving on to start the WM/DE.
[ -n "$xrdbpid" ] && wait "$xrdbpid"

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Last link below, pay attention to the note that tells you what to include at least (you want to have that before including the xprofile) and drop the dbus-launch and udate-activation-environment stuff.

Since this is prbably all a bit dated: Sure you still want to use prime-switch?

So you're saying optimus-manager is causing the my issue?
Because I fully deleted it (including its xinitrc stuffs)

But my issue still presist!


Regarding why I'm using prime-switch (with optimus-prime in hybrid mode) is because of "picom". Why? because when I check nvtop, picom constantly is using at least 60% of my discreate gpu (Intel) without any application running and when I use optimus-prime hybrid mode it drops down to 0.

And I couldn't find anything I should include in xinitrc in this link https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PRIME# … Management

The wiki wrote:

Note: At the very least, ensure that the last if block in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc is present in your ~/.xinitrc file to ensure that the scripts in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d are sourced.

Your xinitrc leads to a broken session, causing failing integration w/ the session bus.

Ah. I misunderstood which last link you were mentioning (the one in your signature)

Any way this should solve my problem? But it didn't!

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Remove the dbus launch and the dbus activation environment

Run dwm without doing a dbus launch

Yes thank you and seth

Forgot to do "drop the dbus-launch and udate-activation-environment stuff."

Just to be exact "dbus launch" causes the issue with running mpDris2 through xinitrc.

None of them was the cause of mpDris2 not functioning through its user service!

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Hi all,

Sorry to bump this again.
Wondering why exactly stuff related to mpris being run through systemd won't work if the window manager is spawned through a dbus session?

I'm trying to achieve that with this snippet within the xinitrc:

dbus-run-session -- sh -c '
  eval $(ssh-agent)
  systemctl --user import-environment SSH_AUTH_SOCK SSH_AGENT_PID DISPLAY XAUTHORITY DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
  exec dwm
'

and it should work as I'm setting the relevant environment variables, and their outputs match as:

env > /tmp/manual_env.txt == systemctl --user show-environment > /tmp/systemd_env.txt

Cheers

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Because you're breaking the logind session integration.
Don't dbus-run anything, why are you doing this itfp?

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

You're right, no reason to launch dwm in a dbus session as systemd-logind already takes care of starting the dbus session.
I was looking at an error someone had by not launching dwm in a dbus session, but they were using a different init system.
My mistake.

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

If your xinitrc isn't broken (last link below, 2nd note there what to add at least) the session bus integration is supposed to "just work" - does it not?

Re: [SOLVED] mpd-mpris and mpDris2 ran through systemd or xinitrc issue

Yes, for a systemd system like mine it does, thanks.
It's just that this issue was referenced outside of these forums and I was wondering why it wasn't working.
