@CaseySJSo I think I've narrowed down the issue to Ethernet over the TS3+ dock being the culprit and not the displays. Looking at System Report, the Ethernet controllers on the dock loads up AppleEthernetE1000 which could be the problem perhaps? I've used the dock successfully before but haven't actually plugged it to Ethernet until now so I'm pretty sure this is the issue.
EDIT: Tried to patch the i210 on the dock with DeviceProperties but doesn't seem to stick.View attachment 543838
Wanted to give an update on this issue for future reference:
It seems that from 11.4 -> TBD, i210 with device-id 0x1533 will load up AppleEthernetE1000 instead of AppleIntelI210Ethernet. I tried spoofing the device-id with OpenCore as well as adding 0x1533 to FakePCIID_Intel_I225-V.kext but neither could spoof the device, I assume because of it being over Thunderbolt and needing an SSDT defining the bridge (similar to spoofing XTXH 6900XT cards). Instead, it was easier to add "dk.e1000=0" (on 11.6.4) or "e1000=0" (12.3 and up) to prevent AppleEthernetE1000 from loading, which causes hangs on Gigabyte boards.
