Here's another issue that seems connected to a recent update to Sequoia 15.3.2:
The dock from the external monitor disappeared!
It is only visible on the main monitor.
I regularly work with the dock and need it on BOTH screens. Any advice?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.3
The Dock only ever appears in one screen at a time. Bump the cursor against the bottom of one screen to make the Dock appear in that screen (that assumes that you have the Dock positioned at the bottom, and not on the left or right).

Do you have the Dock at the bottom?
And are you moving the cursor to the very bottom of the external screen?
Do you have the Dock automatically hiding when not in use?
You could try turning Dock automatic hiding on and seeing if that helps.
System Settings->Desktop & Dock, turn on "Automatically hide and show the Dock"
then move the cursor against the bottom of each screen - does the Dock now appear on each display as you move there?
On a sidenote: what is it that you need the Dock so much for? As someone who does not use the Dock at all, I am always somewhat curious as to what other people use it for, and why it is so important. I can work a whole day and never touch, or see, the Dock.

Good point!
It seems very likely that all these issues are related.
it does appear on the small screen and no longer on the extended on which I work. So I have to move the cursor over just to access the dock. This hasn't been the case before the update.
👍
Hope we ( collective we ) can at least point them in the right direction on multi questions
