16-inch MacBook Pro thinks monitor is still connected after unplugging the monitor.
I've been having issues with the connection between my monitor and my 16-inch MacBook Pro (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251377138).
Today I noticed that the 16-inch MacBook Pro sometimes shows that the monitor is still connected (e.g., in display settings) even after I've unplugged the monitor (screenshot below).
To get the MacBook to realize the disconnection, I have to plug and unplug the monitor until the MacBook Pro to acknowledges the disconnection.
This is leading to frustration problems (e.g., unwittingly making changes to a document that is not pictured on the MacBook because the MacBook thinks that my cursor is on another, imaginary display).
I don't have time to babysit display preferences every time I disconnect to see if the MacBook acknowledges the disconnection.
So how do I make sure this unacknowledged disconnect stops happening?
