hey,

Spec:

Mac mini 2018 i5, 8GB RAM
OSX: Mojave 10.14.6

1st Monitor: Eizo EV2795 - connect via USB-C (Mini) to USB-C (monitor)
2nd Monitor: Eizo CG2730 - connect via USB-C (Mini) to DisplayPort (Monitor)

Here is my issue and I really hope you guys can point me out how to fix it.

When I switch on the power for the Mac mini and I also switch on ONLY 1st monitor - now I see blank screen just a wallpaper, the login screen is showing on the 2nd monitor only (switch off) - I had to switch on 2nd monitor in order to login and then switch off.

I've done adjustment for the System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement (Left side with white bar at the top for the 1st monitor and 2nd monitor on the right side) this work only after login is completed but this does not help with boot start-up !

All I want 1st Monitor to be active during boot up and login screen should be appear it, when ever I need to work on 2nd monitor I'll switch on.

Thank for your time & effort!
 
Try a NVRAM Reset reboot. This should get it straightened out. But its not permanent. The MM gets right and left confused periodically. No idea why or how. Common problem.
