Frequent WindowServer Crashes Since Upgrading to Sequoia

Since upgrading to Sequoia 15.6.1 from Sonoma, I have been experiencing frequent WindowServer crashes.

Using an external display seems to trigger more crashes, but they also occur without it.

A clean reinstallation of the system to the latest version seems to have reduced the number of crashes, but has not eliminated them completely.


Apple Diagnostic did not show anything.

I would appreciate any help, thanks!

Is there an external hub involved? Does it have it's own independent power source?
