DisplayLink 5.0 drivers. Right after upgrading, while still on 4.3 beta, it was working with the airplay workaround. Now I don't even have that option and can't downgrade.

This is really frustrating. I'm going to recommend my company stay away from DisplayLink enabled products moving forward.

And, to echo the comments of bmas26, it's impossible to downgrade, and neither of the earlier drivers (4.3 beta or 5.0 beta) work. Ridiculous.

Personally, this was the last straw for my own use of DisplayLink--I just ordered the CalDigit TS3 Plus Thunderbolt 3 Dock. I'll move the DisplayLink dock to somebody else's machine--one not running Mojave--so after a whole lot of years putting up with DisplayLink issues, I'm done.
