USB KVM issues with USB-C wakeup

Great monitor apart from an ongoing known issue when switching from one monitor to another. The USB switch does not wake up a laptop connected to the USB-C port. This is reportedly fixed in the latest firmware. However, several users are reporting this issue, including me. On older 38" monitors this worked fine. Looks like I might be able to bring this back as Dell is not prioritizing this fix based on months of input from the Dell community. If you don't plan on doing more than one To use a PC, it is probably a normal monitor.

Pros
  • very nice
Cons
  • minor problems
