The build guide already includes a USB-C to DisplayPort cable, albeit for iGPU to drive a DP monitor. In your case, you're using the same kind of cable but connecting your AMD GPU (DisplayPort) to a USB-C monitor, effectively using the cable in reverse.

It makes more sense on laptops. In case they're stolen, your data is encrypted.I already tried that once (and it seemed to work without any problems) but decided to keep it disabled after I reinstalled. I'm not quite sure if it's a good idea to enable it.
The first thing to do is uncheck Wake for Network Access and reboot. Then please try sleep/wake again....
One issue I've noticed is that waking from sleep causes some very degraded internet connectivity. Rebooting solves this issue, but no amount of use seems to resolve the issue.

Are you using RX 5700 XT?
It seems as if MacOS is struggling to connect to this monitor. Do you have a simple monitor like 1080p or 2560x1440 or even flat screen TV?
Please try using DisplayPort as well.
3840*1080 resolution means the installer is trying to use 1920x540 HiDPI mode. 540 is not tall enough to show the entire "Install macOS Catalina" window. Shouldn't the installer be smart enough to choose 3840x1080 low resolution mode? Well, there's no Display preferences panel in the installer so you need a different method to force a different screen resolution:I am on iGPU HDMI to HDMI config.plist and on my Samsung 49" C49RG9x 5120*1440 monitor.
Let me think on my own. Any idea of course are welcome
