Can you drop your full config? I use this config to launch pulsemixer floating in the bottom right and it works for me. Does this not work for you?

Guessing its an edge case or something. Definitely isn't completely broken.

windowrulev2 = float,class:^(pulsemixer)$
windowrulev2 = size 700 400,class:^(pulsemixer)$
windowrulev2 = move 100%-800 100%-500,class:^(pulsemixer)$
windowrulev2 = opacity 0.9,class:^(pulsemixer)$

bind = $mainMod, A, exec, kitty --class=pulsemixer sh -c 'pulsemixer' 

[The-Briel-Deal]

bind = $mainMod SHIFT, E, exec, [float] $terminal

Also i've never seen this syntax before and I don't see it in the wiki on the binds page? Is the [float] before $terminal valid? Is that not what is actually in your config?

Windowrules are working. But I want to have different shortcuts for normal terminal and a floating one. I used this syntax before and it worked. You can set different things with it like size. For example [float; size 100 100]

You can see my config on my repo

Seems fixed now
