Before opening the issue, have you...?

Updated MonitorControl to the latest version (if applicable)

Describe the bug

Sometimes after sleep and then wake, MonitorControl crashes and cannot be launched again without several reboot attempts.

Steps to reproduce

Launch MonitorControl.
Use laptop for daily work.
Put laptop to sleep.
Wake it up.
Seems to be a bit random, but happens almost certainly with a couple of sleep/wake cycles.

Expected behavior

Successfully launches and appear in the top bar.

Anything else?
