Doesn't work with Playerctl

[ghost]

Expected behavior:
playerctl next skips to the next song

Current behavior:
nothing happens, but dbus-send --print-reply --dest=org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Muzika /org/mpris/MediaPlayer2 org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.Player.Next works.

Might be an issue with playerctl, not sure

Sounds like MPRIS works, but playerctl does not. It might be an issue with that 3rd party software.

I tried reading the code for playerctl, but it was unreadable to me. I couldn't figure out what it was doing to get a list of all known players, so I assume it's just an issue with the software. It appears other people have had the same issue, but with Spotify, and just used raw dbus, and it worked.
