Everything looks good on my setup. Not much for me to test this time round, but I've ran a diagnostic suite for good measure. |

Mac mini m1 with a couple of docks (one usb hub in the monitor and one at the base with an nvme drive, and I stuck a usb stick in the hub at the base
Hub is connected usb-c, monitor connected usb-a
The hub under the Mac mini has a built in usb-c cable, can’t be removed

Monitor with usb ports is just a dell screen. Its connected to a KVM so it goes
M1Macmini > kvm > monitor > apple usb keyboard > apple usb mouse (connected via keyboard)

New beta: https://github.com/darrylmorley/whatcable/releases/tag/v1.5.0-beta.1
The main thing to check this round is the Built-in USB ports section on desktop Macs:
It now shows one device tree per physical port, with headers like "Built-in USB-A port 1", instead of one big mixed tree. When everything is on USB-A, the section title says "Built-in USB-A ports" outright.
@aldobalducci <https://github.com/aldobalducci>, your M1 Mac mini is the perfect test: plug things into both USB-A ports (a hub with devices behind it too, if handy) and check each device appears under the right port.
@jimmyorz <https://github.com/jimmyorz>, on your M4 mini the front USB-C ports go through the same section, so a quick look that nothing regressed there would be great.
Laptops should see no change at all in this area.
Also in this build: a new diagnostic probe in the test kit (Thunderbolt 5 PHY data), a fix for preferred refresh rate on some displays, and a cable-trust fix. If anyone with TB5 gear runs "Contribute Diagnostic Data" from Settings, that new probe data would be genuinely useful.
As always: use it normally and reply here with anything odd, or "looks fine on [hardware]". Anything that looks like a real bug gets its own issue.

@aldobalducci Thanks for the setup detail. Nice test case, especially the keyboard-behind-monitor-behind-KVM chain. When you get a minute, could you paste a screenshot of the "Built-in USB ports" section? On macOS 26 it should now split per port with a "Built-in USB-A port 1" heading above your KVM chain, and I'd like to see it on real hardware. If you're on an older macOS it'll look unchanged, that's expected there. |

Mac OS 26.6.1 (25G76)
Is this what you were looking for
