laptop monitor shown when lid is closed

As a follow up, the laptop display is off - with lid closed, or using magnet to fool MBA into thinking lid is closed - but something in displaylink driver is not letting MBA realize it is connected to just external monitors.

Works fine if one monitor is connected via displayport. I really don't want to swap over to all thunderbolt, but this is frustrating.
