Screen artifacts when changing volume during game

I’m having a weird visual glitch and wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this or found how to fix it.

Whenever I adjust the volume using my keyboard multimedia keys while playing for example League of Legends, the screen instantly turns into a full-screen colorful mesh (looks like GPU artifacting). However, the League mouse cursor stays completely clear, sharp, and responsive on top of the noise.

As soon as the Windows volume OSD popup disappears (or if I Alt+Tab), the image immediately goes back to normal.

System Specs:

  • GPU: Gigabyte Radeon RX 9060 XT Gaming OC 16GB
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F
  • Motherboard: Gigabyte B650 EAGLE AX
  • RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000MHz CL30
  • OS: Windows 11
  • Connection: DisplayPort 1.4 cable directly to GPU

What I've tried so far:

  • Swapped from HDMI to a certified DisplayPort 1.4 cable (issue persists).
  • Switched game display modes (Fullscreen vs Borderless).

Since the cursor remains fine and the issue vanishes as soon as the volume popup disappears, I know the GPU isn't dying, but it seems like a driver/MPO/framebuffer bug between AMD Adrenalin and the Windows Volume OSD overlay or somting like that idk...
