So after trying many cables after the standard Samsung USB or higher rated ones DO NOT WORK, i.e. correctly provide audio, video to laptops.
Also, the issue was the current Spigen cable regularly fails to connect, when unplugging a laptop and then replugging or plugging another device.
I ended up with a Spigen cable, worked fine, but annoyed it does not support HDR10 which the monitor is cable of - i purchased the monitor for the 1 CABLE does it all for everyone using the monitor (i.e. i connected a USB hub to the USB A to provide BT keyboard, mouse and headset).
**** IN THE MEANTIME, IT APPEARS HDR IS NOT POSSIBLE VIA USB C ONLY HDMI **** BUT THEN I NEED TO CONNECT A HDMI & THE USB C FOR PERIPHERALS !!! "
Ok so purchased the two Cable Matters cables below, much better resolution picture (perceived), sound and everything runs snappier and so far it solves to connect any device, unplug, replug and connects first time.
Anyway if anyone is interested i highly recommend the Cable Matters cables, i am keeping the Thunderbolt4 version.
