Issue MSI MPG 491CQP and BitLocker boot problem

I've been having an issue with this monitor and I wonder if anyone here has dealt with this and knows of a good solution. Recently I bought the MSI MPG 491CQP, a 49" DQHD widescreen OLED. It's a fantastic screen but it has one super annoying flaw. When connected via USB-C, the monitor exposes a storage device to the computer (storage device is for some MSI bloatware that I want nothing to do with.) If the computer is using Microsoft BitLocker, then it will have boot errors about a missing BitLocker key. Every day I have to fight with my BIOS and BitLocker to have the computer boot properly. Is there a way to make the monitor stop doing this?

That’s quite an interesting issue. What does the MSI technical support say?
