I've done the following in the past:

Half into studs, half with toggle anchors

Drill another hole into the bracket

Use a 2x4 to cover the span and mount to that

I always just drilled out the mount. Simplest, quickest, and cleanest method.

Mounting a 2x4 to wall defeats the purpose of a slim mount in this situation. There is supposed to be almost no gap.
