I have a USB-C VGA multiport with the 3 outputs (USB-A, VGA, USB-C). When I am using my battery I can use my USB-A for an external hard drive and VGA for my external monitor. When my battery goes low and I plug in the USB-C charger through the USB-C port on the multiport adapter I suddenly lose all communication between my external hard drive and monitor. If I unplug the USB-C charger then I am able to re-connect using the multiport adapter.
Is there any way around this? I use my macbook as my only computer so it's a bit difficult to have to suspend everything that I am doing if I need to charge my battery.
