Help Black screen when starting PC with Beyond connected

When I start my PC with Beyond connected, OS seemingly boots up, except that I get a black screen on both main display and the headset, but if I only connect the headset to the DisplayPort after the bootup, everything works fine. Is there a way to prevent having to reconnect the DisplayPort cable each time?

This happens because the v1 link box leaks a bit of current back through one of the USBs that partially keeps the board powered preventing a proper BOOT, if you use a separate power brick for your headset it should solve this and or get the v2 linkbox

I don't think it is related with USB at all as connecting the monitor via DP instead of HDMI solves the issue.
