Describe the bug
When I put the display to sleep and then resume all ironbar instances show on my primary monitor.

To reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
On hyprland with multiple monitors

hyprland display dpms
Wait an undetermined amount of time (usually it takes a while)
Move mouse to wake

Expected behavior
The system is same as how it was when the displays were turned off.

System information:

Distro: NixOS 25.11 Unstable
Compositor: Hyprland
Ironbar version: 0.16.1

Ah, I think I know what this is. This was caused by a workaround for a GTK3 bug, and is fixed on the git version.

If you try that (you can use the flake in the repo) you should find that resolves the issue. Let me know if not.
