Display link and Universal Control

Hello!

Since upgrading to MacOS 12.4 and iPadOS 15.5, I have been unable to use Universal Control when I have a monitor connected via DisplayLink.

I have an HDMI monitor connected directly to my MacBook Air M1 and another HDMI monitor connected via DisplayLink. If I unplug the DisplayLink then Universal Control works with my iPad.. if I plug DisplayLink back in, Universal Control stops working.

Previously, when Universal Control was in beta, I was able to use it with DisplayLink connected but since the full release and update to the above OSs, it won't work with DisplayLink connected.

I assume the answer will either be an update for the DisplayLink software, or the need for whatever changes were made in MacOS 12.4 to be revised in a future Apple update. Any thoughts?
