So the way I would do this is through changing the measure you are using for the visuals.

 

something like this should work, when a single month is selected it will calculate the specificd measure from the start of the calendar year to the previous month.

 

Measure =
IF (
    HASONEVALUE ( DateTable[Month] ),
    CALCULATE (
        [Measure],
        DATESBETWEEN (
            DateTable[Date],
            DATE ( YEAR ( MAX ( DateTable[Date] ) ), 1, 1 ),
            EOMONTH ( MAX ( DateTable[Date] ), -1 )
        )
    )
)

I change some syntax who were not working, so this is the syntax who work

 

date2 = 

IF (
    HASONEVALUE ( 'Data input'[Date].[Month] );
    CALCULATE (
        
        DATESBETWEEN (
            'Data input'[Date].[Date];
            DATE ( YEAR ( MAX ( 'Data input'[Date].[Date] ) ); 1; 1 );
            EOMONTH ( MAX ( 'Data input'[Date].[Date] ); -1 )
        )
    )
)

Otherwise, is is not accept this measure as slicer
