[BUG] Discord PTT

[jbeach4646]

Describe the bug
When install base hyprland using the arch install media, i can get Discord push to talk to work by launching it with: "env XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 discord"

After installing your dotfilles, something in the installation changes and this command does not work anymore.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. env XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 discord
2. discord settings
3. Voice & Video
4. Push to Talk
5. set keybinding(not allowing input)

Expected behavior
When setting keybinding, allows input.

Distribution (please complete the following information):

• Arch Linux
• Hyprland

Additional context
I dont know how to fix this, but im guessing it has something to do with Xwayland not running correctly

@jbeach4646 The ML4W Dotfiles comes with own environment variables. But you can add your own in ~/.config/hypr/conf/custom.conf.

e.g. env = XDG_SESSION_TYPE, x11 discord

Can you try it?

[jbeach4646]

sadly no that doesn't work for me either. Is there a way that you run discord with PTT? If there is a better workaround i would be all for it too, i just used this one in the past and it worked.

@jbeach4646 Thanks for testing? Where have you set this environment variable before? Maybe you can create a script with setting this and execute it on startup?

[jbeach4646]

In the past i added it directly into /usr/share/applications/disord.desktop. Probably the wrong way to do it in linux, but im still new and somehow it works.

Exec=env XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 /usr/bin

@jbeach4646 I would convert this issue to a discussion because it's not a ML4W Dotfiles issue.
