MacOS 1.8.5.
DisplayLink driver 2.2.

Any idea what can be wrong?

I'd first of all check that all the adapters have all the power they need. A powered hub with a good power supply goes a long way in multiple device configurations.
Then try to swap them around and see if there are any patterns and hardware faults.
Finally try to connect incrementally to understand if there are any system/driver limitation.
