My brother has acquired a Studio Display however has had no joy getting it to work with his M1 Pro mbp.

For reference (and to save time) the following has been proved:
* Display works with his iPad and his partner’s Intel mba
* His MPB works with other (non Apple) monitors
* When plugged in, his mbp charges but nothing shows in the OS indicating that a display has been connected
* Using supplied cable - however I imagine the cable must be ok as it works with the iPad and mba?
* All checks done for recent software/firmware updates

The only thing that my extensive googling has suggested is it could be the logic board - however if this was the case you’d think the display wouldn't work at all?

Both of us are at a loss at this point so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is he permitting the accessory to be connected / act as a display? If not, it would only act as a charger.
I've read about that but does this appear on connecting the monitor or is there a setting you can delve into after the fact? He says there was no pop-up to that effect.
