    Monitor Problem

    This one's a weird one.
    I figured I'd ask here for a simple solution before getting our IT guy involved, because that's just painful.

    I have a dual monitor setup on my work desktop.

    Main is VGA from tower to VGA monitor.
    Second display is DP to VGA converter into VGA monitor.

    I have a bluetooth speaker hooked up as well, which I listen to music on.
    Through Spotify on a web browser (specifically), when I load up or listen to music, my second monitor will go black for a small window of time. Sometimes it's 5 seconds, sometimes more.

    I figured it would have something to do with the DP being responsible for both audio and video, but even messing around with default equipment doesn't work.

    The weird part is that it's specific to Spotify. I've been listening to music through YouTube for the afternoon and haven't noticed it go out.

    It's not the end of the world because everything is working fine, it's just irritating. It also just makes me curious as to WTF is going on... LOL

    I think the best thing to do is to get a direct connection instead of using an adapter. Just the first thing that comes to mind for me.
