i am facing the same issue

The error originates here in get_variant<std::string>(value):

Waybar/src/modules/sni/item.cpp

Lines 136 to 137 in d177969

	spdlog::trace("Set tray item property: {}.{} = {}", id.empty() ? bus_name : id,
	std::string(name), get_variant<std::string>(value));

when name =="ItemIsMenu" (and value is supposed to be bool? not sure).

Anyway works for me when I comment out this line.

[bashprompt]

Same:

[warpje5]

yeah same here. icons for custom/playerctl module doesnt work also, but i believe its fmt issue.

[EssenSea]

same problem.

[dhaneshdutta]

facing the same issue

[909oce]

+1

[Arae-1]

same problem here

[mutoroglin]

I've got the same problems

[alebastr]

@Alexays c2f1a78 updated fmt to 11.0.1, but this version is known to have a compatibility issue with gtkmm: fmtlib/fmt#4052. Do you mind reverting both fmt dependency bump and your later attempt to fix the compilation in a4d31ab?

We need fmt < 11.0.0 or >= 11.0.2, but 11.0.2 is not yet available on wrapdb so it's better to stick with older version. In the meanwhile, I'll try to update the version in wrapdb.

[Arae-1]

same problem here

interestingly it works totally fine when launched from the terminal, however using hyprland's exec-once feature it doesn't display

[SwayKh]

I have this same issue, But I wanted to add, That for some reason when I change the font size in style.css the icons reappear for me and disappear when reloading the bar. I have "reload_style_on_change": true, to show the font changes instantly.

[thyeun]

After update from arch, version 0.11.0-2 still facing this issue, tray module not showing icons.

[allergicapple]

Can confirm, not fixed on Arch (CachyOS).
Please reopen.

I use waybar-git in AUR and the latest git version works for me.
Try:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/waybar-git.git
cd waybar-git
makepkg -si

[grgpw]

obviously, there wasn't a new release yet

[dR3b]

Arch Linux: extra/waybar 0.11.0-3 work's! Thanks!

[GaetanLepage]

obviously, there wasn't a new release yet

In such cases, can a minor release be done ?

[kzdixon]

You should really consider adding this fix to some new release so maintainers properly pick this up. Gentoo recently pushed out 0.11.0 and I was puzzled as to why tray icons suddenly stopped working. Downgrading to 0.10.4 solved it, which I had tried after stumbling my way into a few issues linked to this one.

[sentakuhm]

using hyprland-git and i tried both waybar from official arch repo and waybar-git, i get error:

** (waybar:43763): WARNING **: 11:35:43.869: Status Notifier Item with bus name ':1.21' and object path '/org/ayatana/NotificationItem/nm_applet' is already registered

and no try icons.
