**Setup**
I've got an iMac on Ventura 13.5 with a connected Magic Mouse and a Magic Keyboard. I am sharing the Magic Mouse and the keyboard with another Mac (Ventura 13.5). The two devices are a foot apart, they both are connected to the same Wi-Fi, and both are signed in with the same Apple ID. The *Mac* has a second monitor connected to it via HDMI.

**Problem**
With increasing frequency, the iMac has started to randomly disconnects from the MacBook. Then, one will only see the image on the Display settings. This is rather annoying as I use the mouse and the keyboard to work on the MacBook.
Edit : To add more clarity, the issue as far as I understand is that the Mac display gets disconnected. That is, I can only see the iMac under the displays in the attached image. As a consequence of this disconnection, the universal control fails too.
**Attempted troubleshooting**
1. Updated both the iMac and the MacBook to Ventura 13.5
2. Switched off and switched on both the keyboard and the mouse.
3. I noted previously when I am in a Zoom meeting on the iMac, the MacBook gets disconnected from it. But I do not have Zoom open anymore.
