Exit on Mode change with (F1/F2/F3)

I am on arch and use the latest version of pulsemixer from the aur repository. When I start it in interactive mode I cannot switch modes using the F keys. Pulsemixer then just exits.
Most likely your terminal sends incorrect key-sequence which isn't picked up by ncurses as F1-3. The cause is, again most likely, is this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Home_and_End_keys_not_working#TERM
If that's the case you should fix your $TERM variable since it will cause issues with many console applications. For naked tty you should use 'linux', for xterm and urxvt the fix is in the archwiki, as for the rest of GUI terminals you should consult their settings. And if you are guessing $TERM in .basrc/.zshrc, make sure you've guessed correctly. Completely removing any export TERM is also a viable option which allows your terminal emulator to set the variable to whatever value it can support.
But if that's not the case let me know and we'll dig deeper.
He. Perfect. That was the issue. I had set the term value in various locations and for different applications and finally the value I set in my zshrc was the issue. Now it works as expected. Thanks
