KA272U completely unresponsive unless I unplug power cord
This is an extension of my previous post with the KA272U monitor not waking up properly. I know there are issues with the Mac Mini and DP port sleep issue. What I am asking here is a little different.
Once the monitor went to sleep, it became completely unresponsive. None of the buttons works, including the power on/off, input switch, etc. I have unplugged the DP cable, same result. The only way to make the monitor work again is to unplug the power cord, wait for the amber light to disappear and then plug the power cord back. Is this normal behavior? I can understand a "No Signal" handshake issue. But I find it very hard to accept that the monitor completely kills all functionalities until the power cord is pulled.
Can someone chime in? I still have time to return this product if this is either a design flaw for this particular model or bad batch.
Thanks.
