LG Ultrafine 5K accessaries not working when replug to Mac

After I update to latest OS 12.2.1 Whenever I unplug and replug my LG Ultrafine Display, all the built-in accessories such as speaker, mic, and webcam do not work. The only way that I could manage to get this work is to restart the mac. however, the issues appear when I unplug the USB-C and replug again.



Any help?

Since it works until you unplug the monitor and when you replug it in it does not show, try booting to Safe Mode. That boot up takes minutes and clears caches and other things that may resolve your problem.

A lot of times just boot to Safe Mode followed by normal boot resolves problems.

+1 to this issue. After first plug in after restart or after restarting in plugged in state all built-in accessories & USB peripherals (keyboard, mouse dongle) work fine. After unplugging & plugging back in only the display works. Also have encountered the laptop crashing after plugging back in.
