Please take this gently, but I did not really walk away from this post having gained anything.

The author does not call it out, but I think the point is that it's not only the dock. I've been struggling with MBP wakeup issues for a while.

TL:DR an issue with MBP port, MBP to Dock link, Dock, Dock to Monitor link, or the monitor itself could cause the unplugging dance. In addition, it takes some t…

Then my comment won't help you much: since I swapped my MacBook Air M1's 27" monitor for a 34" one from the same brand, it's only been the exact clusterfuck of unreliable "wake up not working properly anymore" for no friggin' reason. Except in my case it was working fine, and now it's not anymore.

#20Never thought it could be the monitor. I have an HP dock with an HP laptop for work and it's totally unreliable waking from sleep. My chances of getting new monitors are slim in this climate but it's a new avenue of investigation at least.
