Issue description

Dunst doesnt load with the correct config for the size of my notifications at startup, I have to manually reload dunst using a script everytime after rebooting for it to have the correct notification sizes. I have no idea what is causing this

Installation info

Minimal dunstrc ```ini # See dunst(5) for all configuration options [global] ### Display ### # Which monitor should the notifications be displayed on. monitor = 0 # Display notification on focused monitor. Possible modes are: # mouse: follow mouse pointer # keyboard: follow window with keyboard focus # none: don't follow anything # # "keyboard" needs a window manager that exports the # _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW property. # This should be the case for almost all modern window managers. # # If this option is set to mouse or keyboard, the monitor option # will be ignored. follow = mouse ### Geometry ### # dynamic width from 0 to 300 # width = (0, 300) # constant width of 300 width = (200,500) # The maximum height of a single notification, excluding the frame. height = 300 # Position the notification in the top right corner origin = top-right # Offset from the origin offset = 10x10 # Scale factor. It is auto-detected if value is 0. scale = 0 # Maximum number of notification (0 means no limit) notification_limit = 0 ### Progress bar ### # Turn on the progess bar. It appears when a progress hint is passed with # for example dunstify -h int:value:12 progress_bar = true # Set the progress bar height. This includes the frame, so make sure # it's at least twice as big as the frame width. progress_bar_height = 10 # Set the frame width of the progress bar progress_bar_frame_width = 1 # Set the minimum width for the progress bar progress_bar_min_width = 300 # Set the maximum width for the progress bar progress_bar_max_width = 300 # Show how many messages are currently hidden (because of # notification_limit). indicate_hidden = yes # The transparency of the window.

How do you start dunst? Where is the config file located? What script do you use to reload dunst?
