Unknown or unsupported transport “disabled” for address “disabled:” #262

The player I am using is Spotify.

I am trying to use playerctl status, but every time I try to run that, it gives me the following error: Unknown or unsupported transport “disabled” for address “disabled:” I thought it was an issue with the daemon, so I ran playerctld daemon, but got the following: could not connect to message bus: Unknown or unsupported transport ?disabled? for address ?disabled:?

Did I install it incorrectly?

It seems as though DBus is disabled on your system. You cannot use playerctl unless this is set up correctly.
