Volume control with Kef eggs

Using Kef eggs for audio playback from Mac mini, but can not use my Kef remote to control volume output.Have to switch into the full playlist from Audivarna to control volume output. Means having to switch from other programs when the wife gets home and finds my music a bit on the loud side. All software is upto date…macmini 2018 version…any ideas. Tried most normal solutions…
