volumeicon is killed at startup while using pipewire.

I use windows manager such as Awesoem, dwm, bspwm. Today, I switched to PipeWire from PulseAudio. Everything fines. But volumeicon starts and then is immediately killed at startup of Window Manager, I have tested Awesome and Bspwm.
After startup completed, if I start

Code:

$ volumeicon &

in terminal, it works fine. I managed autostarts putting volumeicon at last after sleep 1 or 2 seconds, but it still killed immediately after it starts. Is there anyone with the same issue. Please and thanks in advance.

would be nice to give us more details. What OS is it, which version? How did you install pipewire (also which version)?

I use Arch + dwm

linux 5.15.12-arch-1

pipewire 1:0.3.43-1
pipewire-pulse 1:0.3.43-1

volimeicon 0.5.1-5

in that case also would be useful to move this thread to the arch subforum. Click on report and ask mods to move it.
