The Monterey 12.4 Broke USB-C Charging

After upgrading to 12.4, my 2021 16-inch MacBook Pro w/M1 Pro CPU now doesn't charge from any USB-C ports. My usual USB-C charger stopped working and the MBP doesn't make a beep or indicate any reaction to the charger. I've tried another charger and cable that I know work. It will charge from the 140w supplied charger but not from USB-C?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.4

I forgot if you mentioned it but does the computer charge with the MagSafe charger?


I'm sure Apple knows about it as I think I was one of the first to log a report with Apple on the USB-C charging issue several months ago. This is not a widespread problem and may be difficult for Apple to tie it down. I know in my case, switching to the MagSafe charger allowed me to charge my MBP and then the problem went away. I didn't do anything that I'm aware of to fix it and it's been working fine ever since as I never use my MagSafe charger.
