Pipewire Capture Not Working on River

I've been trying to get pipewire capture working under river with on luck. Tried a bunch of the stuff in my configs and made sure pipewire and the desktop portal stuff was running. It seems to mostly be a dbus thing, even though it is running when I log into river.
I do have pipewire-pulse and wireplumber installed and running. I have seen issues with wireplumber not wanting to run in some situations. I have runit as my init, migrated from arch a while ago.

I also have problems with chromium and firedragon not displaying in river, not so much in hyprland.

Running "chromium"

Running it again, with the desktop portal commands in my config

I do have this in my river config, with no dice and I do have the desktop files with the "env" set when starting up river from lightdm.
Code: [Select]
exec "dbus-update-activation-environment DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=river"
exec /usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal -r &
exec /usr/lib/xdg-desktop-portal-wlr;

I've been beating my head against the wall trying to get it to work with no dice.
