Booting into Windows has the effect of initializing the Titan Ridge TB3 controller via the Windows drivers. When we subsequently warm-boot into macOS, the effect lingers. So the behavior you're describing is "scientific". Various Thunderbolt add-in-cards on other motherboards require their owners to cold-boot into Windows and warm-boot into macOS.
Casey,
Yes, I've seen this warm-boot procedure concerning add-in TB3 cards but I didn't think it applied to the built in TB3 controller on the Z390 DESIGNARE. Have you heard of others having to do the warm-boot procedure on the built in controller?
