Is flying into Chiang Mai really a problem for DTV (Workcation)?

I need to re-enter and want to holiday in Chiang Mai with my Thai girlfriend afterwards, but ideally I'd just meet her there rather than taking her to Vietnam with me. I really don't want to fly back to BKK to catch another flight.
Answer summary
The general consensus from the comments is that flying into Chiang Mai with a DTV visa (Workcation) should not pose any significant issues. Users have reported flying to and from Chiang Mai multiple times without encountering problems, although it is suggested to be prepared with the necessary documents related to the visa.

Not a problem really. Just have been some stories that they may want to look at the documents you applied for the visa with.
