I am also having the same issue. I am on 10.14.3 and I have the latest DisplayLink driver. Logs from the DisplayLink Information app have been sent.

I have a user experiencing the same issue. The workaround I found was that first I have him put the system to sleep (AppleLogo-->Sleep) then remove the MacBook Pro from the dock. The internal screen will then work when the computer is woken up.

However this is not a replacement for a proper fix. Can anyone at DisplayLink provide an update on this? Thanks.

Same issue. I have to restart my MacBook Pro (2018) EVERY time I unplug from my DisplayLink dock. Very annoying for productivity or going to meetings.

When the dock is unplugged, the MacBook still thinks the external monitor is connected.

I have tried using the Command + Brightness Down reset trick, but it does not help.

How do I tell my mac to reset my display back to JUST the Retina Display?

A few days later and still no response from the company...

DisplayLink 5.2

ThinkPad USB-C Hybrid dock
monitor 1 -> DisplayLink via USB-C -> Dock via DisplayPort to Monitor (Lenovo p24h-10)

Have to reboot my machine to get built-in display working again.
