External display connected to USB-C by a KVM-Switch not working since 13.3.1

I've connected an external Display to my MacBook M2 (2023) using a KVM-Switch via the USB-C Port.

It worked fine until I updated from 13.3 to 13.3.1 this morning. Now the display is not recognized anymore.

It still works if I connect it directly without the KVM switch.

Any ideas what could cause this or how to resolve it?


MacBook, OS X 10.11

I have a MacBook Pro 13-inch, M1, 2020 and after upgrading to Ventura 13.3.1 my External display LG 32UP550-W isn't detected anymore via directly attached USB-C. HDMI via SATECHI hub is working still.


I've set "Allow accessories to connect" to "Automatically When Unlocked".


I tried force detecting the Display in the Displays configuration by holding the option key (then Detect Displays shows) and clicking on it. This seems to be a broader problem impacting a lot of folks.


Cheers


[Update - Solved issue] - I reset my LG 32UP550-W by pressing the menu button under the LG Logo -> Settings -> General -> Reset to Initial Settings. My screen was connected with USB-C and instantly started working.


Hope this helps

This is happening to me as well, on a 2021 M1 MacBook Pro after upgrading to 13.3.1 last night. I am not using a switch or adapter; the display doesn't work when plugging the USB-C directly from my external monitor (a Dell 5K something or other) to my computer. It was working fine on 13.3.

I had to plug the KVM to the VGA port of the 2nd monitor and (via adapter) plug the USB-C directly from the Mac to the HDMI port of the monitor and switch the source of the monitor when I switch on the KVM. Hopefully this super janky workaround is only temporary until they fix this in 13.3.2 or 13.4.
