Monitor Volume change is not as desired

[busuta89]

Hello,

I have LG ergo 32 inch monitor. Changing the monitor volume is working, however it changes the volume in a way that monitor volume adjust screen pops up. So monitor shows 2 volume adjusting settings, one is on mac os level other is hardware monitor level. On windows it only changes in software level.

lets say I put my monitor volume at %50 with its hardware button. When I am on windows if I put the volume to the max, it is actually %50 on hardware level. When I am on Mac, it changes everything in hardware level.

This creates an issue; lets say I put the volume on mute on mac. When I switch to windows, it stays on mute and I have to use monitor button to readjust.

Is there a way to fix this ?

Thank you.

This is all normal:

• About the OSD issue, you can disable showing the macOS OSD under the app's Settings>Displays>Volume Control>Show OSD...
• On Windows you seem to be using the OS controls that simply adjusts the audio mixer volume, not controlling the display's amplifier via DDC. Try using DDC control apps that control the display itself.

I understand. But I want other way around like windows. Can we just adjust volume mixer on mac ? So I set my monitor volume on hardware level, and it stays same on both machines while I can adjust my volume on software level ? I dont know if it is already in settings or not tbh. It would be great if you can let me know.

Not with the built-in mixer. There are some apps that can help, like eqMac. Make sure you disable audio keyboard control in BetterDisplay then.
