Summary
Root cause
Core Graphics can report a display as active before its DDC/I²C service is ready. Dimmerly cached the first failed hot-plug probe as permanently unsupported, so subsequent display refreshes skipped it. Toggling Hardware Control forced a later probe and detected the display correctly.
Impact
Compatible USB-C/DisplayPort displays should become available for hardware control automatically after hot-plugging, without requiring the Hardware Control setting to be toggled.
Validation
just check
