New Mac mini M2 Pro "Kills" My Monitors
I have a new Mac Mini M2 Pro connected to two Dell U2722DE monitors via USB-C cables.
Everything worked as expected for almost a week and then suddenly the monitors would not wake up from sleep. Moving the mouse, keys on the keyboard, swiping on the trackpad, no avail. Forcing the Mac to shut down and restarting it didn't help either.
Both monitors however did come alive when the same Mac was connected via a HDMI cable, also when connecting a PC using DP cables. After having tried a lot of different approaches, I just switched everything off (actually pulled the common power strip cord out of the wall socket) for about 30 minutes, connected the monitors to the Mac with the USB-C cables as before and restarted everything. Now everything worked fine again!
Another few days went by with everything working fine and then only one of the monitors went dead; the other one continued working fine but the Mac was only detecting that one. Benefitting from my first experience, I again switched everything off, waited for a while and switched it all back on. Again, everything went back to normal.
Since then, every few days, one of the monitors (not always the same one) goes unrecognized and my switching everything off and on again returns the situation to normal.
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
