Describe the bug

When I turn autohide on in the config, the bar hides properly when I am hovering on the empty part of the bar. However, when I hover over the widgets, the bar hides itself.

To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Add module clock
Add autohide=500
Hover over empty part of bar (bar does not hide itself)
Hover over the clock widget (bar hides itself after the delay)

Expected behavior

Bar should not autohide when I hover over the widgets. It should only do so when I escape the area of the bar.

System information:

Distro: Arch Linux
Compositor: Hyprland
Ironbar version: 0.16.1

Configuration

Config

position = "bottom"
anchor_to_edges = true
height = 40
autohide = 500

[[start]]
type = "workspaces"

[[end]]
type = "volume"
format = "{icon} {percentage}%"
max_volume = 100
on_scroll_up = "pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ +10%"
on_scroll_down = "pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ -10%"

[end.icons]
volume_high = "󰕾"
volume_medium = "󰖀"
volume_low = "󰕿"
muted = "󰝟"

[end.truncate]
mode = "end"
length = 50

[[end]]
type = "clock"
format = "  %H:%M:%S %d/%m/%Y"
