Even though you are connected, all you see is a black screen. If the host screen / display is set to turn off (go black) in system preferences than LogMeIn (Central) does not take the Host Mac display out of this dark mode. I can get in via ssh, but I am not sure which process to kill to restore visual access. This solution simply does not work for the M1 Mac. Recently, I have been getting this issue where both LogMeIn Free and APple Remote Desktop can't access the machine properly.
