I haven’t been able to find a thread that talks about this, so I apologize if I’ve missed one. I just got the new M4 iPad Pro 13”, and have it attached to a Magic Keyboard and plugged into an external display (BenQ PD3220U). The monitor has a keyboard/mouse attached via USB as well (the monitor has a built-in KVM setup). At least once, but often twice or more per day, my external display goes black (can’t detect an input source) and I start hearing the iPad make the “you just plugged in a USB-C cable, I’m charging now” sound. The sound happens every few seconds, like it’s constantly disconnecting/reconnecting, even though I haven’t touched the cable (and I’ve tried two different USB-C thunderbolt cables so I’m pretty sure it’s not the cable that’s the issue). Unplugging/replugging in the cable doesn’t cause the monitor to turn back on. The only fix I’ve found is to restart the iPad, and then everything starts working again. This is really frustrating considering I‘m trying to do work on the iPad, and it’s just not reliable.
Has anyone else experienced this? I’m wondering if there’s something buried in settings somewhere that might help me resolve this.
Thanks for reading!
