Since upgrading my Mac OS to Sonoma, I have regularly been getting screen blackouts. Every 5/10 mins, both my extended screens will go black for a few seconds and just come back on. This is really annoying and is making it a hassle working from home

Experiencing the same issue. Not a good look when presenting to clients. It's only happening with 1 of 2 monitors.

Could be hdmi cables, once you start pushing 4k 60hz+ sometimes low quality cables can cause these short blackouts because it's having trouble always receiving the data due to loss or interference
