Hotkeys often stop working after the first time they work.

Even if I restart the skhd service, the hotkey works the first time, but not since. It sometimes works again, but I don't know why sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. How do I fix this?

I am experiencing a similar issue where hotkeys stop working after a few hours.

Upon investigating, I noticed that after some time, if you have Bash or other scripts in your skhd configuration, skhd will continuously spawn new processes for them without terminating the old ones. This issue does not occur when skhd is functioning properly.

I think you're right, I'm using hotkeys for ./script.sh commands in my config file.

same here, after a few hours needs to restart the process to have it working.

Something similar happens to me, after some time it stops processing shortcuts. But I see the process running with ps aux | grep skhd. I think this problem started after migrating to Somona.

Currently running Somona 14.5 (23F79) on M1

It happens to me too, it seems a specific process starts to block the skhd somehow, when this happens I try to close some APPs to have it working again, in the worst case it demands a logout.
