Default Apply Watch Unlock / DisplayLink / Screen Sharing

I have found that sometimes, when my mac is hooked to my DisplayLink monitor, the automatic-unlock function with the Apple Watch no longer works.

I get a prompt at the login like this:

"Unlocking with Apple Watch is not available while your screen is being shared"

I believe that this is because the DisplayLink driver is somehow causing the Mac to think screensharing is turned on -- as I know I don't have any other screen shares active. If I disconnect the usb display prior, Apple Watch unlock seems to work again.

I just want to know if anyone else is seeing this, and if my assumption is correct. This is not a huge deal to me, as the monitor works for me and that's more important. But if its not DisplayLink driver causing it, I want to go investigate what else it could be. IE, I'd just rather know for sure than to guess or assume.

Thanks,
Greg
