S34J55x left half's bottom light doesn't turn on occasionally
This is a weird one - Bought this S34J55x monitor during covid, and for some reason it started developing this issue where when it wakes up, the left half of screen doesn't turn on bottom light. The right half is fine. Pixels are fine though. using joystick to turn off/turn on fixes the issue most of the time(not 100%).
This has happened both for PC(hp laptop through HP USBC dock to DisplayPort) and Mac(M4Pro MBP through a Tripp-lite dock to HDMI1).
It feels like a software/firmware issue, but I can't find any firmware updates(if they exist, Samsung's support website is...meh).
Anyone have experience/insight?
Is this a good question?

@soloist_huaxin are you saying that the backlight for the right side does not come on? Take some pictures and let us see what the line between the right and the left side look like. It could be a failed backlight, but it could also be a bad buffer board. Adding images to an existing question
