Please be more specific in your bug report. Leaving empty fields and writing a very general single sentence doesn't help us understand your issue. Write in steps what exactly you are doing, and in actual behavior what exactly happens.

0. The option to adjust brightness and volume with gestures is enabled
1. Opening a video file
2. I swipe my finger on the left side of the screen - the brightness is adjusted
3. Do the same on the right side of the screen - volume is not adjusted.

I don't really know what to add because the gesture “just doesn't work”...

Does it display information about volume change, but doesn't change the volume, or doesn't even show anything? 

It works on my phone, so I have a few additional questions to get a better understanding of what can be wrong on your device:

1. Does it happen on all videos?
2. Are you trying to do this with the device in portrait or landscape mode? Or do you have a problem in both modes?
3. Have you checked different places on the right-hand side of the video? It doesn't work in every place.
4. How are you controlling your phone? Do you use the view with three buttons at the bottom, or gestures?

Nothing's happening at all.

I'm starting to guess that it's clearly something specific: in Issues SMT someone complained about a similar thing with Xiaomi about a year ago.

The answer to your questions is yes, in all cases. I use the three-button control. I've tried everything I can think of - the volume is not adjustable. I also tried the latest version from SMT - same problem.

I also additionally checked on Right Gallery application based on SMT Gallery - same problem. What other information can I provide to help solve the problem? Here by the way is the same problem from a year ago..... There's a chance to finally solve it :)
