I load xmodmap and xcape via exec on startup

exec_always --no-startup-id "xmodmap /home/nik/.xmodmap"

(I tried it with and without ")

exec_always --no-startup-id xcape

.xmodmap:

keycode 66 = Control_L
clear lock
add Control = Control_L

But they do not load. When I reload the config though, it works. I see no errors in .xsession-errors and the i3-log doesn't have errors either.
