Display arrangement changes after sleep or reboot I have a Mac Mini M1 2020 with two HP 24mh FHD displays, attached to the HDMI and USB-3 ports. It is running Ventura 13.0, but the issue happened in previous OS versions. When the computer returns from sleep, or in reboot, any of the two displays may become the main one. They appear as HP 24mh (1) and (2) in System Preferences\Displays, but the names change when this happens. I have tried PRAM and SMC reset, but no joy. The only solution for this is to manually change the display arrangement. Does anyone know of a less bothersome way around this?

M1 mac mini confused by two identical displays My 2022 M1 Mac mini is connected to two identical displays, one via the built-in HDMI port and the other with Apple's thunderbolt to HDMI adapter. When waking from sleep the mini seems to randomly decide which display is right or left side. Waking the computer and finding all of the windows swapped right for left is annoying because I typically use the display on the right for my active application and workspace. Does anyone know of a fix for this issue? M1 mini 16 GB Mac OS 12.3 2x innocon monitor 27C1U

Pixelated Studio Display with Ventura 13.4 and MacBook Air I just upgraded to Ventura and am having issues when my MacBook Air wakes from sleep with a pixelated Studio Display. I have my displays set to Mirror so the MacBook Air is also pixelated. When I did a hard restart (holding down the Touch ID key), everything is clear again. Right after I installed Ventura 13.4, there was a Firmware update for the Studio Display, which I installed. Since the computer and display are both Apple products, I'm hoping Apple will note and resolve this issue as I don't want to restart my computer every time it wakes. Any interim advice from the community is appreciated.
