running `wal` command turns laptop screen on while lid is closed

[earthian]

arch, hyprland git, hyprland running on intel gpu, plugged via usb-c-hdmi to external monitor, lid closed
running wal -n -q -i "$wp" --saturate 0.3 enables (turns on) laptop monitor (while lid is still closed) each time for some reason.
Even tho it was disabled via hyprctl keyword monitor "eDP-1, disable"
