reset the NVRAM,

How to reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support

and if that fails reset the display to default if the monitor has a menu that allows it.

Once you have that sorted you can adjust the display resolution in the >System Preferences/Display

and if you hold down OPTION when you click scaled you may get additional resolutions to choose from

I tried turning the TV off and on helps put the resolution back but the the sound only comes out the Mini Mac.
