"You must restart your computer to apply these changes" on each dock/undock

Today I undocked and ran my Surface Pro standalone for a while. It worked fine with no pop-up that I noticed.

When I got to work, I connected the Surface USB 3.0 port to my Dell u2913W monitor which has a USB 3.0 hub. I also have a StarTech USB 3.0 GB Ethernet adapter connected to the Dell Monitor. The monitor itself is connected via DisplayPort. Soon as I connected, the message popped up saying the changes required a reboot.

Normally I just lock my Surface, disconnect it and bring it home. Today, I signed out before disconnecting. When I got home and hooked into the Dell 2340T, I did not get the popup requesting reboot.

Previously, I was getting the message at both locations.
