Looks good

@glitsj16 there's an issue somewhere in the mocp profile config , when detaching from moc server (Using q) the window get stuck but the server still runs (like in the screenshot below) however if you sent a kill signal with (ctrl+c) the server shutdown and the music stops .

@M1ndo Thanks for bringing this to our attention. For the moment though I'm having trouble reproducing it. But that's entirely due to my very hacked mocp setup. For starters I use a custom built moc PKGBUILD on Arch Linux instead of the official one from the AL repo's. I use Shift+Q to quit. To top it all off I decided to sandbox mocp with a whitelist profile. Together these changes work very nicely for me. I'll temporary revert of all my fiddlings and re-test the original profile without local overrides as soon as possible.

On a sidenote, there's this FAQ item upstream that might be helpful. Do you happen to have 'ShowTime = yes' and/or increased 'TagsCacheSize' in your ${HOME}/.config/moc/config?

@M1ndo Okay, here's some more info I've been able to gather. What you're seeing is indeed the behaviour I can reproduce with the Arch Linux repo package. Don't know what mocp is actually doing under the hood, but even with --noprofile detaching with 'q' does not stop the server. That's probably why I bound /usr/bin/mocp --exit to Shift+Q in the first place. Been too long ago to remember exactly. You could try this and if it proves to be a workable solution I'll add a note to the mocp.profile to that effect.

For this hack to work you need to use the full path to the unsandboxed mocp executable when binding the key you'd like to use. I'll need more time to investigate this and try to find a proper fix.

Thanks replying back, In my config i set ShowTime To "no" And TagsCacheSize is unset however that's not the issue here .When detaching from mocp i don't wanna kill the moc server with (shift-q), i keep it running in the background while streaming music using (q) and that's where the window doesn't close (like in the screenshot i attached previously).
Using the full path to the unsandboxed mocp this doesn't happen at all .

I'm getting a 404 on that screenshot. But I think I understand now, 'mocp --exit' won't do in that cae. Alas, I can't provide a quick fix. What terminal app are you running mocp in? Is that sandboxed too?

[M1ndo]

Here's the image LINK i'm using xterm unsandboxed.
Just in case i'm using jack2 and routing pulseaudio to jack , however this shouldn't cause the problem since mocp is using jack not pulse.

[glitsj16]

I'm not able to fix this. There's a tip on the Arch Linux wiki to use Ctrl+z instead of 'q' to detach but for me that isn't working either. My advise at this stage is to open an issue on it and I'll mark it as a bug. At least that way should give it better visibility as other collaborators probably don't follow this conversation on a PR/merged page.

@glitsj16 Sorry For The Delay , here's the issue i've opened Here discussing the problem with MOC and firejail .
