How to use use a Type C Monitor

Hi, DL friends. I'd use to work for years with a simple and cheap AOC monitor (e1649fwu). It's worked perfectly using a DL Manager on my Mac Mini. After I changed my computer to a Mac Studio M1 and everything kept running OK. The output of this monitor is MIni-usb and I used to plug it into a USBA hub. 100% OK.

But this monitor has passed away and I've bought a new BETTDOW (Ac1025). This monitor has 3 outputs : Mini-HDMI, USBC1 and USBC2.
My problem is : when I try to plug this monitor with a USBC -> USBA cable in the same computer entry where I used to plug my old AOC, nothing happens. The computer turns the monitor on, but "no signal" text appears on the screen.

The monitor only works when I plug it in one of the 4 rear USBC entries of the Mac Studio, but it seems that the DL Manager does not take part of it. I can even quit DL Manager and the monitor keeps running OK.

The problem is : I need thsi rear entry for other devices.
Is there a way to keep using the USBA computer entry (via DL Manager) to release the rear Mac Studio input to my other devices ?
Thank you for any help.
Best regards.
