I have a 2017 MacBook Pro. It has 2 USB-C ports on the left side and I use an Aukey hub to provide more ports (4 USB, 1 HDMI, 1 USB-C) AND ALWAYS TO CONNECT TWO MONITORSand always to connect two monitors.

I connect one monitor through the hub with the HDMI port and another directly to the MBP with a USB-C adapter. Sometimes when I connect the hub to the Mac and the 2nd monitor to the Mac, it works as it should with no problem...but more than half the time I have to connect, disconnect, jiggle, jangle, switch ports, reconnect HDMI, etc. and hopefully they will both work. OFTEN, I can only get one monitor to fire up.

Is there any kind of software fix or reset that might solve this issue? Any other thoughts welcome. Thanks.

Is is possible that a software issue could be causing spotty USB-C connections on 2017 MacBook Pro?
