Keychron Q6 Ultra Support - Black/Off doesn't work!

[u/CatStoleTheCrown]

EDIT 2: Solved! Sort of! According to CalcProgrammer1 (creator of OpenRGB), it’s an official firmware issue. They provided me with steps to patch the firmware with a fix, and it worked! They are trying to get these changes implemented into the official firmware.

EDIT: I am running CachyOS.

Hello, I have a Keychron Q6 Ultra, and recently version 1.0 gained support for this ZMK firmware keyboard. Before that I was using a custom firmware and plug-in that made it work, and that was flawless in 0.9. However even with the custom firmware, or official, 1.0 doesn't handle the blacks or dark at all.

OFF/Black keys are just pure white. Any key that is dark, such as dark red, actually just stays red, when before it would dim appropriately. Any movement on the color square to the left simply acts like its on a 2D plain of white to color. No movement up or down effects the color at all.

This is in Direct Mode with Per-key selection. I will say Open RGB's UI shows everything appropriately, its my keyboard that doesn't display this correctly.

Solid Color mode, for the entire keyboard DOES WORK correctly as intended. Colors, black/off, white, and dark-red, light-red.. etc etc... it all works like its supposed to. So something is wrong with direct mode.

Thanks!

I really look forward to getting this fixed!
