I've had 2 issues since upgrading from Snow Leopard, wondering if anyone else has run across these.
1) My sound output preference won't stay with HDMI if I have a headphone extension plugged in. This worked fine under 10.6. I have a headphone extension cable that I leave plugged into the mini and had no problems with outputting audio to my HDMI connection. But since installing Mavs, if I try choosing HDMI, it just flips back to the headphone output. If I unplug that, then it'll stick to HDMI. I tried pulling the 2 preference files from the /Library/Preferences/Audio folder and rebooting. This is a minor issue compared to the next one...
2) Garbled graphics on screen at times. The first time I saw some was right after the Mavs install when I had for weird graphics along the dock and app store window. Reboot fixes it. Now I've had it happen several times since then, including the last 2 days I turned my TV on during the day. The computer does not sleep, display was set to turn off after 30 min. Screen Saver after 20. Haven't found any commonalities, I thought it might be related to VNC cuz I had used it to connect to the computer a few times before it happened, but I've had it happen since where VNC wasn't used since the last reboot and no active apps running.
I've tried a SMC/NVRAM reset so far. At the moment I set it for not sleeping display to see if anything different happens and I'd done the mini EFI update since then, but really the first time I saw the issue, it never slept and it was before the EFI update anyway, so I doubt it's them.
I'll most likely just have to try a clean 10.9 install to see if that fixes it. fingers crossed. Should have stuck to my "wait for the .3" rule.
