Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When playing music on Mac OS, system does not detect media playback.
We cannot use media keys (stop, play, pause, next, previous) during Sonixd playback.

Describe the solution you'd like
Make Mac OS detect playback and allow interacting with it.

Did you enable this setting and add Sonixd to the Accessibility list? You should be able to use your media keys after that.

You are right, enabling it makes it work without any problem.
Sorry, didn't see the options in Preferences !

This feature has stopped working for me in v0.15.0 (is still working with 0.14.0)
I'm using macOS Monterey 12.3.1

@Kiwaof Seems like upgrading the electron version in the latest release broke the global hotkeys for macOS. I'll push a new release with a fix soon.

0.15.1, media keys not working for me anymore, works on 0.15.0. I'm on macOS 12.3.1 and M1 (arm64). Tried to re-add to Accessibility, turn off and on setting in Sonixd - no avail.
