I just started trying to setup two screen using the official dock and the experience has been pretty awful. In desktop mode, I got two freezes while trying to have the displays recognized. Booting with both screens plugged in resulted in no detection. Then after replugging a screen (display port) I only got 640x480 resolution. Second replug I got the 1080p but plugging the second screen either results in a crash, or just now it’s not frozen but I only have a black background and the mouse cursor.

Is there some setting to change to improve the situation? Ideally I’d like it to be automatic when I plug the Deck on the dock, especially with valve official dock which costs quite a bit compared to other options.

I’m curious about other people’s experience with this

    I think it’s related to the monitor I was plugging on HDMI. With a different screen it works better.
    But I still have sometimes the displayport screen not turn on after sleep, and the deck crashing when unplug/replugging it :(
