I bought a Displayport to HDMI cable to use my second monitor, on my b660 plus asus motherboard which has a displayport along an hdmi port. I also have igpu on cpu (intel 12400). When I connect my both monitors separately through HDMI, there is no problem everything is good. But when I connect a single monitor via Displayport to HDMI cable, I have screen for maybe 10 secs, then the screen goes black (with "no signal" message), then unplugging the DP cable won't even get the screen back for that short period, but unplugging the power cable along DP cable, and plugging both cables again would give us back the screen for that short nearly 10 seconds period.
I have no idea why this issue happens in this form for my device, I should also mention that when I plug DP to HDMI only, and navigate to BIOS, I have screen with no problem there, as soon as I exit the BIOS, my screen again goes black even in the boot section.

It is really odd that in the short 10 seconds period when I get the output of xrandr
command, I see the DP connected monitor in the HDMI-1 part above.
I would be grateful for any kinds of assistance, since I'm struggling with this frustrating issue for a couple of days.
