Voidrice: i3 sound commands are not working
I was having troubles using all the sound commands on i3, I changed the ";" with "&&" in the i3 configuration file and that solve the issue (by example: bindsym $mod+Shift+m exec --no-startup-id amixer sset Master toggle && pkill -RTMIN+10 i3blocks). It is necesary make that change or I'm missing a dependency or additional configuration?

My bad, I forgot I had to add exec --no-starup-id to the pkill when I made the pull request #460. Though using && instead might be a more elegant solution, and since it's already used with other existing pkill commands I might use it instead. I'll create a pull request to fix this. Thanks for reporting this issue!

@vladdoster Now that you mention it, it might be related. I'm not entirely sure though since he didn't seem to have attempted the command outside of i3's config, but I'll still reference it in the pull request.

nope @vladdoster I tried it, the toggle function is not working for me, while volume up and down is ... weird ...
