It's not a brand monitor issue. It's a computer brand issue, and the company behind that brand, Apple, which is a joke and assigns most of its engineers to work on iPhones and iPads instead of fixing its computers.
I have conducted extensive tests recently that prove without any doubt that the machine and thus the system knows which specific display is connected to which specific port at all times. And some day soon I'm going to start a new thread, since this one is already too long, and I would like people to be able to get to the point and see the tests rather than go through pages of this thread.
But I have all this in a Textedit RTF file which is not as easy as doing a copy and paste, and it's a very long document with dozens of screenshots. So it takes a long time to reformat all that to post it here and in other forums.
But eventually I will, because I want people to see that it's Apple's gross negligence that is causing this, and if I spent a couple of hours straight, plus another hour since then doing different tests, this is something that Apple should've done a long time ago, because I'm not an engineer, just a guy who has been using and troubleshooting Macs and PCs for 25 years or so.
The main point is that the machine knows every single time, what physical display is connected to which physical port. This is more than proven in my tests, in many different ways.
But regardless of that, macOS flips a coin every time the displays wake up, or the machine is rebooted. It's downright pathetic and it has sent my opinion of Apple down to the bottom of the ocean, because this has taken hours of my life, and an amount of stress that is really unhealthy. Because they have known about this for years, and yet they choose to ignore it.
