Unable to display to monitor after iOS 18.1.1

Prior to 18.1.1 update I was able to connect iPhone 12 Pro and iPad 10.2 9th Gen to external monitor using Using Apple Lightning to HDMI Adapter for iPhones/iPad/iPod with Lightning Connector (MD826AM/A)

After update error message on both devices. "Cannot Use Accessory Lightning Digital AV Adapter: This accessory requires too much power."

I was able to connect an iPhone 13 on iOS 17 to external monitor again same cables and it worked after upgrading to 18.1.1 I now get the requires too much power message. I am able to connect an iPad 7th gen MW6H2LL/A on iOS 16 (same cables/setup) and display to the external montior works fine.

I am facing the same issue.

There are others who are also facing the same issue like: https://www.reddit.com/r/iPadOS/comments/1e25clg/ipad_os_18_external_display/

iOS was released in September 2024, still no fix from Apple.

I am sitting in my office right now and not able to connect the iPad to the external monitors, it used to work before !!

This is a showstopper bug.
