VMWare Horizon Client 4.x.x: Multimonitor problem with VIA chip

We used to use Horizon client 3.5.2, it worked fine. After we updated to Horizon client 4.xx(have tried 4.0.1, 4.1.0, 4.2.0), all these versions have the same issue as follows:

If you try to connect a Horizon server with a computer with Horizon 4.x on, which has dual monitors and using VIA chip, after you used any of applications from the server, the connection window will become black, you can still move it, but you can see nothing on it.

However it works fine with single Monitor. Also tried with Computer with Intel chip on, there is no such Problems.

Don't know if this is a bug or an known issue, but we are looking for a solution for it. It will be very appreciated, if someone here can give some advices.

Hmmm.. That's interesting.

We are using vGPU with a K1 NVIDIA card and when seelcting a K120Q profile and using 2 monitors we also see some issues popping up (check the NVidia VMTN).

What happens in W10 is when u use 2 monitors and play a youtube movie fullscreen it crashes the session but only the video part of it, sound still works.

Strange thing is that it seems to have no correspondance with what you are seeing but still it happens whens using multiple monitors. Could be that PCoIP just has some issues with multiple monitors??
