[Mesorah] Vowels under YKVK

[Mandel, Seth via Mesorah]

What is strange about it?
The sh'va under the lamed is silent.
the sh;va under the aleph has its usual meaning, that the first letter of Adnus is pronounced with a chataf patach and is not silent.

I was chatting about Ha'azinu's HaLAdY and its Vowels

OK
When YKVK is Read ADNY the first letter takes a Sheva
This "seem"s to represent the HATAF patach for ADNY

Yet when it is pronounced Elokim
The Yud gets a HATAF segol and not just a "sheva"

EG See Tehillim 140:8 Elokim (YKVK) ADNY

Why isn't the vowel under the Yud consistently with or without a hataf?
