Display Connectivity Problems with Sonoma on Macbook M1

After upgrading my (work) macbook M1 to Sonoma,

I have been experiencing daily issues with connecting two monitors.

It's extremely sensitive to the order in which the monitors are connected (I use one HDMI and the other via USB-C), and, if not disconnected, the computer can start endless loops of connecting and reconnecting the monitor(s).

It seems to be related to power management somehow, as the USB-C connection is also used to supply power to my Mac.

I've also noticed that the left side, nearest USB-C somehow has less issues than the other other ports, and is my last resort when all else fails.

This problem did not occur before upgrading to Sonoma,

and virtually everyone in our SW team (team of 10) is experiencing the same wonkiness ever since we upgraded to Sonoma.

Any insights, or can Apple please fix this.
