Thanks for the response! To clarify, I'm using a Thunderbolt 4 Multi-Display docking station with DisplayLink technology (not ST-D4KTM-EU, my apology). The USB-C ports on the dock are labeled with the Thunderbolt icon (lightning bolt), indicating they should be Thunderbolt ports.

Previously, using DisplayLink with an M1 MacBook Pro, I was able to drive 3 monitors via HDMI/DP through a single port. However, with this current setup, although I can connect and use two monitors through the Thunderbolt ports on the dock, I cannot get a third monitor to work. The DisplayLink software shows no DisplayLink-enabled devices, unlike when I connect via HDMI or DP, where the software properly detects and drives the monitors.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue, or can suggest a solution? Any help would be appreciated!
