Intertesting observation though.  What do you mean "MC27 added some apps to that list for MC to be aware of which could explain why it suddenly started working for HansVanEijsden."

The apps that use the media keys need to be aware of each other.
Some new apps were added to MC27

On a MAC, goto Security->Privacy->Accessibility

Make sure MC27 is turned on and MC26 is turned off!

I had a head scratcher in that I was playing FM music on my receiver and was also adjusting a You Tube video volume on my Mac keyboard.  Except, the volume on my receiver was changing !!!! The volume on my PC was not.  What the ....  ?   

I quit MC and the PC volume was now working correctly.   

As you suggested above....I deleted MC 26 in Security->Privacy->Accessibility and all is well again.

Hello... I'm new to the MC app.I downloaded MC26 and i'm delighted with it...everything worked fine.
As I had a licence for MC27 I downloaded it not long after it was launched and everything worked ok as with MC26 when first installed.I quit the app and did something else.Upon restarting the app I was amazed that the keyboard volume control keys on my MacBook Pro didn't work.I then opened the interact forum and had a little look.Iquit Safari and went back to MC27...magically the volume control worked fine.Sadly each time the app is quit and restarted the issue remains.
I have tried deleting and reinstalling both 26 and 27 even reinstalling OS Catalina but to no avail.
As long the app remains open there are no issues ...only when quit and restarted.
No other apps inc.MC26 running

Yep...this is a known problem.   When MC first starts, the keyboard volume keys will function on other apps (eg You Tube).   But once you play a song in MC, they will cease to function until you exit MC.   This also happened in MC26. 

Somewhere I documented this but can't find it now.
