Hello there! I just go the last gen Magic Keyboard and I'm using it on a MBP 16'' 2019 with Catalina (10.15.7) on it. The keyboard works fine, except for the fn keys. They do not work as intended: for instance, if I press F10, instead of mute/unmute the audio, it shows Expose (or whatever is that functionality which aggregates windows from a same program and shows them). I also tried to hold the fn key but it does not change the behavior. Could you help me?

Hello there, thanks for your suggestion! Unfortunately, I don't have that options. From the UI I guess you're using Monterey, while I'm still on Catalina. You can see the preferences I get from the screenshot (sorry the language is Italian but I think it is understandable). Fun fact, even if the keyboard is connected (via bluetooth, and I'm typing with it right now), it seems the preferences are referring to the MBP one.

What are your options here? I think you need to choose the other option.
