Before I switched to Arch, I was on PopOS. With PopOS, when my game rounds would start, I'd get a notifcation telling me so. But since I switched to Arch, I can't seem to get that anymore. And I'm not exactly sure why. I used Dunst at the time, and it worked. But since switching, I can't seem to get that to run. I'm on Hyprland now, but since it's a notifcation system, I don't think what WM/DE I use should be relevant.
#Dunst nor Swaync notifying of games starting

Are all other notifications working just fine? or is it just Steam?

It seems to just be steam, as far as I can tell. Discord still pings me, as well as my other chat clients.

I'm going to assume that steam is listed when you run busctl --list
sick mountain
It is, yeah

Let me try to recreate your problem really quick, I had an issue with Discord a few days ago but it was not Dunst related, just discord things in the end

The only game that I know that should be giving me notifications is Overwatch. I get discord pings with dunst, swaync, deadd, and wired. For discord notifications and notify-send. but not by the game.
sharp ingot
are you using the flatpak version or the multilib one?
I couldn't recreate it all, the notifications worked just fine for me. What I can't recreate is the OW one because I don't play OW so I'm not sure how different it is from the basic steam ones
sick mountain
Probably multilib. That's the one pacman gives, I think.

I reinstalled Steam and I still get notifications, what I did find is that steam notifications are native, so it might be a steam problem and a reinstall could be your fix. Sorry I couldn't be of more help

I'll try that. I figure it's probably not steam itself though.
