    Second external monitor through HDMI - USB adapter not working

    I've recently bought a new Asus TUF Gaming A15 laptop which has a HDMI and a USB-c connecter. My setup is as follows:

    Laptop: Asus TUF Gaming A15
    OS: Kubuntu 20.04
    Monitor 1: Laptop screen
    Monitor 2: Connected through HDMI
    Monitor 3: Connected with a HDMI in a HDMI-USBC-connector in the USB-C port of the laptop

    Now the strange thing is that the second monitor on the USB-c is detected, but gives a black screen. The xrandr output is:

    This is a screenshot of the Display Configuration.


    All looks good, but the screen just shows a black screen. Whenever I change the resolution of that monitor, for example, it makes these noises it should make when changing the resolution. So something is working. Also the monitor says it gets input, only the input is entirely black. The information page on the monitor itself shows:



    On Windows it works just fine.

    Anyone got any idea what could be the problem? Many thanks for your reply in advance!
