Description
When a window sets the urgency hint on a non-visible workspace, the Waybar bar that contains the sway/workspaces module unhides as expected, but other Waybar bars stay hidden even if they use the same bar_id and are otherwise controlled by Sway’s bar IPC.
This makes multi-bar setups inconsistent: only the bar with sway/workspaces reacts to urgency, while companion bars do not reveal.
Steps to reproduce
Run two Waybar bars: a top bar with sway/workspaces and a bottom bar without it; both in "hide" mode and sharing the same bar id with ipc enabled.
Trigger a window urgency on a different workspace (so it’s not currently visible).
Observe which bars unhide.
Expected behavior
All Waybar bars tied to the same bar_id (and/or in hide mode) should unhide when any workspace becomes urgent.
Actual behavior
Only the Waybar bar that has the sway/workspaces module unhides; other Waybar instances remain hidden despite sharing the same bar_id and responding to bar IPC commands in other scenarios.
