Context: this is a legit screenshot I took on my workplace around 1.5 years ago. Hopefully it's been patched by now? Completely ridiculous behavior

I have to disable that wired connection.

Sounds like it never works... Why not just unplug the ethernet...

It’s completely useless that it shows up as an audio device.

Does it have HDMI? It might be a digital out over hdmi.

It's a shared workplace, so I can't just leave the ethernet unplugged.

And yes, it has DisplayPort and potentially HDMI, too. I do have an idea why it might work that way, but from a user perspective, it's still useless and annoying...

shared workplace

the next guy won't be able to use the ethernet either
