IIUC jkmeter isn't a dBFS meter. Or can you set a switch to use it as
dBFS meter?

Than it's seemingly a "consumer device feature", aka bug.

It's not a serious issue for me, it's just that I prefer not to have a
chain of unneeded controls, so I try to set controls for media players
to behave neutral. In the past I used media players that claimed to
bypass an EQ, but there still was equalisation.
