My mouse and keyboard are connected via the USB dock function of my monitor. After the update, I can't even login. Great. Not that it was working well before.

My mouse and keyboard are connected via the USB dock function of my monitor. After the update, I can't even login. Great. Not that it was working well before. To get the second monitor to even turn on, I had to first power off and then subsequently turn on again the primary monitor. And that ritual was unique to my M2 Pro Mac mini. On Windows, or a M1 Pro Macbook, everything just works. And I'm not the only one with this super annoying external monitor issue. Apple apparently never fixed it. It just sucks.
