Quoting Matthew Hague <matthewhague@zoho.com>:
When playing a track, there is a little progress indicator at the bottom of

and the indicator updates, then the menu window disappears.  Even if ncmpcpp
is not on the same workspace as the GUI app.

Really strange! You should post your config somewhere (say, hpaste.org). Are you using an urgency hook?

I'm wondering if ncmpcpp is doing something like using $WINDOWID to pop up a separate window and manipulating it forcibly.
