I have searched for existing issues
I have looked through the wiki
I have updated MonitorControl to the latest version

Describe the bug
I tried cloning the project and building it myself and I ran into several issues all boiling down to the fact that the Cartfile has no versions/commit hashes set:

AMCoreAudio is not called SimplyCoreAudio on version 4 and no longer source compatible with version 3 (AMCoreAudio) which is what this project uses. So the Cartfile should specify the version as ~> 3.4.
DDC and MediaKeyTap simply use master in the Cartfile. This is an issue because after I fixed the AVMCoreAudio problem I noticed that the app I compiled myself doesn't work properly – most of the time nothing changes on my display. Only after spamming volume/brightness keys anything starts to change. The latest version installed through homebrew does not have this problem. This could be a regression in DDC, but since there is no commit information/tag version for DDC in the Cartfile I do not know which commit you linked against!

Environment Information (please complete the following information):

macOS version: 11.4
Mac model: 2019 MBP
MonitorControl version: master
Monitor(s): LG HDR 5K
Apple Silicon/M1 (yes or no): no

Hi, all of this is being worked on in the refactor/Preferences branch.

I just need to fix some of the storyboard stuff and it'll be ready for a merge.

Changes so far:

Migrated Carthage to SPM
Migrated MASPreferences To Preferences
AMCoreAudio to SimplyCoreAudio
Dependency updates in general

The switch to SPM also resolved command reliability, I have no idea why but I suspect it has something to do with Carthage.

So I suggest you work off that branch if you want to make changes, though I will probably squash merge it, it shouldn't be an issue.
