Erroneous VLAN Mismatch Alerts on LACP trunk

I'm seeing erroneous VLAN mismatch alerts on both 9k switch ports in my LACP link to another (monitored) 9k.

 

Neither switch is showing any errors etc, and the LACP port channel is happy.

You have not configured the switch on trunk mode.

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

For link between switches you have to use spanning tree link type point to point.

Also don't configure portfast on ports going to other switches.  It defeats the purpose.

Make sure both switches have the same VLAN's configured.

 

And please provide an output for show interfaces trunk.

I have a similar issue, except it is between C9300 & MS390 stacks. The allowed trunk ports match but the one that doesn't is the native vlan, but I haven't changed the value yet as they are working as intended and they are a critical piece of our infrastructure and I've yet to pluck up the courage to make a change. If you view the ports in the meraki dahsboard, what does it show under the vlan mismatch info when you click on Warning: Vlan Mismatch under the CDP/LLDP value in the status section? Image is taken from my dashboard, but I can't show the info under the warning pop-up
