Layer 1 ChatGPT underglow and bottom lighting turn off within seconds, while Layer 2 stays lit

Environment

• Creator Micro v2 (wireless), firmware 0.6.2

• Work Louder Input 0.18.4

• Windows 11, connected over Bluetooth

• ChatGPT desktop app with Codex integration

Configuration

• Layer 1: native ChatGPT / Codex

• Layer 2: Windows shortcut layer configured in Input

• ChatGPT device settings: Brightness 100%; Auto-dim 3 minutes

Issue After switching to Layer 1, the outer underglow and the bottom/backlight illumination turn off within a few seconds. Layer indicators and some native status lighting may remain visible.

When I switch to Layer 2, the outer underglow and bottom/backlight remain continuously lit. The Layer 2 mappings also work after Input is closed.

This is different from the completed report “ChatGPT overrides underglow on non-Codex layers”: my Layer 2 lighting is working correctly on firmware 0.6.2. The behavior appears limited to Layer 1 / native ChatGPT mode.

Expected behavior / question With Brightness at 100% and Auto-dim set to 3 minutes, should Layer 1 underglow and bottom/backlight remain on for that interval? If this is intentional native ChatGPT behavior, please document it or provide a setting to keep the Layer 1 underglow/backlight on.
