Unhappy Dell D1000 with 2 screens and 2 display adapters

Hello,

I bought a Dell D1000 docking and I'm experiencing problems and confusion between Display cards and 2 monitors.

I have:
Notebook ASUS X555UB
Windows 10 (build 1607)
1 x Intel Integrated Display card
1 x NVidia 950m Display card

These are the scenarios I found here:

1)
Main display: Notebook screen
Secondary: External Monitor (connected via HDMI in dock station)
Mode: extended desktop
Everything works fine

2)
Main display: External Monitor (connected via HDMI in dock station)
Secondary: Notebook screen
Mode: extended desktop

* I have problems... Nvidia board seems to be deactivated... games just run with Intel integrated display board... even if I force to use nvidia, lokos like it wont works.

*Notebook makes much more noise, like its using much more resources.


3)
Main display: External Monitor (connected via HDMI in dock station)
Secondary: Notebook screen
Mode: cloned desktop
Everything works fine

4)
Main display: External Monitor (connected via HDMI in dock station)
Secondary: disabled
Mode: Just external monitor

** Same situation as 2 **

So everything just seems to work fine when notebook integrated screen is defined as main screen.

I already installed latest version of Displaylink driver (8.2 M0) that was realeased today and got the same problem.

I'm really disapointed
