Hello! I’ve been daily driving EndeavourOS for some time now and i absolutely love it. I have noticed in the past day or two that upon boot or changing the power profile, my extarnal screen brightness goes up to what I’ve set for my laptop screen and that wasn’t the case up until maybe 2 days ago. Looks to me like the two sliders were coupled in the last few days (I only had 1 slider in power management settings which controlled the laptop screen brightness and thats fine)
Here is the list of updated packages in the last 2 days since i noticed the change:

Any solutions besides disabling DDC/CI on the monitor in OSD setting?
Edit: the brightness of the external display is also increased waking up the display after it’s set to auto turn off (the laptop does not go to sleep, I just set the timer to auto turn off screens after 20 min)
