Video / Music / Media not playing

Hi,

I have had my M1 for about 6 months now and am constantly running into an issue when plugging my mac into the dock hooked up to 2 monitors. Videos on youtube for example or music on spotify etc, do not play. In the case of youtube I will click the video and just get a black screen with a buffering wheel. This only happens when hooked to the dock and everything else works fine, just cannot play any form of media.

To fix the issue I need to restart the computer while hooked to the dock. I have not been able to find a solution to this but it is definitely caused by displayLink, since it never happens when using the laptop on its own.
