I had to start it manually. It failed. This is the output.

# systemctl status displaylink.service

I do not have additional providers when I run xrandr --listproviders

While this service is not running, you will not have the new provider into xrandr...

The Displaylink Manager has been killed... The question is : why ?
Do you have log file in /var/log concerning Displaylink ?

# updatedb
# locate displaylink | grep log

What return the

# dmesg
# lsmod | grep udl

Thx

Into your dmesg, there is always a problem with the display manager service :

[    9.553262] systemd[1]: Cannot add dependency job for unit display-manager.service, ignoring: Unit display-manager.service failed to load: No such file or directory.

Since it's not running, your displaylink service will not run correctly...
You can try to use lighDM or another DM to test before resolve your KDE problem...
What have you fond to reinstall KDE ?
