macstudio m2 max extended display doest work until login

Before Tahoe my second display would come on with my primary. After updating to Tahoe it stays black until I login and the progress bar completes. Then everything is back to normal. Anyone know why?

Mac Studio, macOS 26.0

Tahoe enabled FileVault by default, and FileVault requires your login password as part of the key to decrypt the internal storage and complete the boot up process.


You can disable FileVault in System Settings > Privacy & Security > FileVault.
