e sets xsettings to tell apps that read these to uses some specific fonts,
theme, dpi etc. - i've seen qt mess up badly when theme is set AND the qt style
plugins are not there. it doesn't fall back gracefully. not qt5 style. qt5 style
plugins. the plugins is the important bit - the thing that provides some
plugin for qt to properly do this.

 5:32AM ~ > pacman -Q | grep styleplugins
qt5-styleplugins 5.0.0.20170311-35

all i see is mixx segfault. probably because it can't connect to jack. not very
graceful. it does it even in a wm-less xephyr.

e also sets 2 env vars:

QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=gtk2
QT_STYLE_OVERRIDE=gtk2

this tells qt to use the gtk2 style to do theme stuff. you could unset these in
a terminal and run mixxx from there and see.

it might mess up if it doesn't like the dpi set - but then that'd be it's
problem for not rendering at that dpi to scale correctly - regardless of the
value. either ignore the dpi or use it as given. don't use it then fall over if
the value isn't one you like.
