Consider the following scenario:

I have a primary bar polybar primary. I have a module in this bar, clicking on which it launches a new bar, polybar secondary &, i.e launches the bar in the background. If I don't have any clickable area defined in the secondary bar, and click on anywhere on the secondary bar, the secondary bar is killed/exits.

This problem doesn't appear if I don't launch the bar in the background. However, if I don't launch the secondary bar as a background process, I can't interact(click) with the primary bar while the secondary bar is displayed.

Have a look at #770 for how to start background processes from polybar without them automatically being killed.

Thanks.
The nohup and setsid methods work for me.
