Hello,
Have you tried the latest driver?
For a while, the issue was the DisplayLinkManager service wasn't starting in time at reboot, but some changes were made in that regard and I don't know if that is still a limitation as we don't test WES.

The output type is not expected to have an impact as it's driven by the chip directly, not the PC.

Similarly, having 2 devices instead of 1 with dual videos is only different if you were to use 2 different USB host controllers: the chip in the device does hardware video decoding so if it's made for 2 heads, it handles 2 heads, and if you have 2 videos on the machine, going to one chip or 2 chips is similar in loads. The difference is USB load, and it's unlikely to be the bottleneck, the machine computing power is more likely to be.

What type of content do you want to display, on what type of machine?

Kind regards,
Alban
