Hotplug functionality no longer working after Linux Kernel 7.0.3 #567

Description

@Tenosiey

Are you using the latest driver?

Yes (displaylink 6.2-1)

Are you using the latest EVDI version?

Yes (evdi 1.14.16-1 via DKMS)

Linux distribution and version

Omarchy 3.8.0

Kernel version

Linux 7.0.3-arch1-2

Desktop environment

Hyprland 0.54.3 (Wayland)

Hardware

ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 12
DisplayLink USB-C Dock

Problem summary

After updating Omarchy to 3.7.0 and the Kernel to 7.0.3, DisplayLink output works, after reboot. But hotplug functionality no longer works. I need to reboot for the monitors to work.
Mouse and Keyboard connected to the Dock still work.

What I already checked

evdi is built for current kernel and loaded
DisplayLink service is active (displaylink-driver.service)
rolled back to 6.18.28-1 LTS Kernel. Still no improvement
issue appears tied to Wayland/Kernel + evdi interaction after upgrade

Workarounds tested

Rebooting or relogging, these work.
