so i need to connect to the pipewire ipc socket in order to get the current audio volume as i am making a eww config and it's either call the wireplumber cmd which is quite ram hungry if you call it as fast as possible cause you kinda have to in order for it not to feel slow.
So i need to connect to it preferably via a shell script.

#

cause it's just what i am comfortable with

#

and i like using it for my bars and config

#

yes

#

it's more configurable

#

i am looking at them

#

none have what i am looking for but i did find a nice substitution for it i.e making it a tooltip and updating the audio when the tooltip is shown
