Show volume overlay only when controlling system volume? #20

Firstly, great tool, thank you! Interestingly the binary seems to work fine for me on Ventura 13.2.1 (Intel MBP) - not sure if that's Intel specific or something in my system config, but either way it's a bonus.

Just wanted to check if two small things are possible:

For context, I'm using this with inverted modifier turned on and using QMK macros to automatically insert the ⌘, so that the normal volume keys still control system volume (for alerts, video calls, etc. as expected), but the physical volume dial on the keyboard maps directly to Spotify and controls the wireless speakers.

I'm hoping to make it "invisible" - Spotify control is hidden and just happens, and system control behaves identically to the default - so a possible alternative would be just to have a setting not to intercept volume keystrokes at all unless the modifier is pressed?
