refresh info on module startup

[xoorath]

Hey,

I'm finding that after restarting polybar I'll have no track information or controls until a track change happens.

I've worked around this by toggling play/pause in my script that launches polybar. I know this project hasn't gotten a lot of action lately so I'm mostly sharing to help others who might look for a fix for this. Maybe some day a solution could be worked into spotify-listener or the module.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

polybar-msg cmd quit

echo "---" | tee -a /tmp/polybar1.log /tmp/polybar2.log
polybar main 2>&1 | tee -a /tmp/polybar1.log & disown
polybar right 2>&1 | tee -a /tmp/polybar1.log & disown

# This is a hack to force the spotify-listener to refresh when polybar starts.
spotifyctl -q playpause & spotifyctl -q playpause & disown

echo "Polybar Launched"

Thanks!
