There's actually 3 places in the system where the audio level for
transmit must be adjusted correctly.
(a) SPEAKER - Just left click on the speaker ICON and set the level
for about 35%. Or right click on the speaker ICON, then select
Playback devices. Click on the one being used, normally Speakers USB
Audio CODEC, select this and then select Properties and then Levels.
You can adjust the level from here. Again about -18 dB although your
level may vary.
(b) The PWR slider on WSJT-X -- I find this to run about 50% to 75%
however {see C below}
(c) The Line Gain in the K3S. I use a value of 30.
All three of the above will affect the ALC number of bars. If any of
the values are at either the extreme minimum or extreme maximum values,
you'll likely have somewhat a challenge in getting the levels correct
and stable.
Also be advised if you should use the computer of other reasons which
require support of the audio system, you may find that the levels have
changed. No fault of the radio, no fault of the WSJT-X application but
just the way Windows works. Just remember the approximate values and
where to change and set them.

Welcome to the club. I don't know what it is, but it is.
See my post "Soundcard levels" from July 16.
Maybe with your complaint there will be a response.
BTW, TX Test doesn't guarantee zero output. I have another thread
about that.
