As said in the title, I'm using sddm and Hyprland, with waybar as the status bar.

In my Hyprland config, I have

Code:
exec-once = waybar
...
// exec other apps that show a tray icon


However, while waybar starts at launch, the tray icons (actually the whole tray module) do not show up.

Then if I do

Code:
pkill waybar
hyprctl dispatch exec waybar


Then the tray icons show up.

But usually, some apps that already launched still don't show.(like nm-applet), I will have to do the above restart of those apps for their tray icons to show up.

When I was using Arch Linux, I used exactly the same config and everything works as expected.

libappindicator is installed with gtk3 use flag.

If you use OpenRC did you run Hyprland with the dbus-run-session Hyprland command?

Well this indeed works when I invoke that from a tty. But since I am using sddm, how to configure sddm to use that command as well?
