Don't have privileges to usb and wifi after migrating from Arch

Init system: runit

I have elogind installed and its service running

Code: [Select]
paru -Qs elogind
local/elogind 246.10-5
    The systemd project's logind, extracted to a standalone package
local/elogind-runit 20210413-1
    runit service scripts for elogind
local/lib32-elogind 246.10-2
    The systemd project's logind, extracted to a standalone package (32-bit)
local/libelogind 246.10-5
    elogind client libraries

Code: [Select]
ls /run/runit/service/elogind/
run  supervise

network manager is also installed and working

Code: [Select]
ls /run/runit/service/NetworkManager/
run  supervise

nmtui works with sudo but without sudo I get
Quote
not authorized to activate/deactivate connection
android-file-tranfer and hp-setup don't detect any devices unless run with sudo.

I added my user account to the groups groups network, video, audio and storage myself after migration, the rest are system pre-configured ones.

Also both video and audio which I did not have permission for before worked when I added myself to those groups and both of them have an id around 900 while the ones that aren't working network for example has a small number.

also my dwm start command in
Code: [Select]
~/.xinitrc
is
Code: [Select]
exec dbus-launch dwm
which should have fixed the privilege problem but it didn't.

finally here is my
Code: [Select]
/etc/group
with my username replaced by the word username
