Before opening the issue, have you...?

  • Searched for existing issues
  • Looked through the wiki
  • Updated MonitorControl to the latest version (if applicable)

Describe the bug

Brightness on the external display resets to 92..99% each time I close MacBook lid. In the office MacBook is always open, but at home I usually work solely on the external display and open my MacBook only when I attend video calls.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Open MacBook
  2. Connect external display
  3. Set brightness to 65% (using the slider in the app OR system brightness slider on the touch bar)
  4. Close MacBook lid

Expected behavior

Previously set brightness preserved

Anything else?

  • "Sync brightness" enabled
  • "Upon wake" is set to "read display", also reproduces for "apply last"
  • When "upon wake" is set to "assume valid" - brightness in the app also updates to 100%, but previous brightness is preserved de facto until you move the slider

Environment Information (please complete the following information)

- macOS version: 13.5.1 Ventura
- Mac model: MacBook Pro (16-inch, 2019)
- MonitorControl version: v4.1.0
- Monitor(s): Dell S3423DWC (USB-C)
- Apple Silicon/M1 (yes or no): no
