- Parameters:
pulseaudio.autostart: If set to ‘true’ (default is ‘false’), automatically starts the pulseaudio daemon if it is not running
pulseaudio.percent_change: How much to change volume by when scrolling on the module (default is 2%)

pulsectl.popup-filter: Comma-separated list of device strings (if the device name contains it) to exclude from the default device popup menu (e.g. Monitor for sources)
pulsectl.showbars: ‘true’ for showing volume bars, requires –markup=pango; ‘false’ for not showing volume bars (default)
pulsectl.showdevicename: If set to ‘true’ (default is ‘false’), the currently selected default device is shown. Per default, the sink/source name returned by “pactl list sinks short” is used as display name.
As this name is usually not particularly nice (e.g “alsa_output.usb-Logitech_Logitech_USB_Headset-00.analog-stereo”), its possible to map the name to more a user friendly name.

deadbeef
Displays the current song being played in DeaDBeeF and provides some media control bindings. Left click toggles pause, scroll up skips the current song, scroll down returns to the previous song.
- Parameters:
deadbeef.format: Format string (defaults to ‘{artist} - {title}’) Available values are: {artist}, {title}, {album}, {length}, {trackno}, {year}, {comment}, {copyright}, {time} This is deprecated, but much simpler.
deadbeef.tf_format: A foobar2000 title formatting-style format string. These can be much more sophisticated than the standard format strings.
