Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Changing Volume on a LG Monitor bring the Monitor OSD on Top. Hiding OSD cause flickering of the OSD.

Describe the solution you'd like
Is it possible to disable the BezelUI (Info Popup from OSX) for Volume changes or completly disable it?

Additional context
When the external Monitor is not connected, the BezelUI should be enabled - when external Monitor is connected, just Volume Info should be disabled, because the Monitor UI come into the game.

I'll add this to the next version. I agree that the old "Hide OSD" implementation is making no sense - it is very slow, makes OSD flicker and very difficult to even understand what is happening. There are even some issues opened because of this. I'll change "Hide OSD" to "Disable macOS Volume OSD" something like this:

So if an user with an LG display doesn't want both OSD-s to show up he'll have the option the let the display do it's thing only.

Perfect, thank you!!!

By the way, osx make always huge jumps when changing volume. Is it possible, to make it the default setting, to make just "one step" jumps. Like changing volume with pressed option+shift keys.

Hi, I'll add an option to limit max volume in one of the future releases - this should take care of the "huge jumps" as the new max will be a a lower value.
