Brightness problem with ARC Control

[Lex25661]

I’m not quiet remember when, maybe around July or August this year, every time I updated to the latest driver using official intel driver support and opened ARC Control, my screen dims like something happens to the gamma setting or so, no change after restart unless uninstalling driver in safe mode and clean reinstall it.

This happens when I use a HDMI and pertains to DP cable, however no brightness problem entering safe mode. It’s really annoying since the card functions well when this happens, just the brightness drops significantly after opened the ARC Control panel, even when the screen brightness setting is totally the same. Two month later this still happens on 101.6078 driver.
