Main display does not show Apple logo on boot

Hello,

I am enclosing my system configuration and display system preferences in trying to solve this issue. When I startup my Mac mini the boot logo appears on the extended display and not the main display. However when I do any software updates the Mac boots up on the main display. Its only when I restart that this issue happens. Ultimately I could just deal with it but I use my extended display much less and want to stop my boot appearing on it. I have reset and done all the tech advice to deal with it and it won't solve. Any advice would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance. Happy Holidays..

Main Display (ACER S271HL): HDMI into Mac mini port

Extended Display (DELL P2219H) HDMI into hub USB 3

Mac mini, macOS 14.2
