I was able to get the display sleep to work by using the apple menu and selecting sleep.

But what used to work and does not anymore is the automatic sleep and hot corner.

For example when the macbook puts itself to sleep the displays are normally turned off, this is now not the case with the one display connected to the displaylink device. The screen is dark but the power is still on while the other display (same model) that is connected to the thunderbolt is turned off.

This is the same if I use the hot corner "Put Display to Sleep". Again it use to work correctly with the display link device and now it doesn't.

But if I put the macbook to sleep via the apple menu then everything works.

Earle,

you are right. Standby mode puts all displays to standby mode including the Displaylink connected display.

"Display Sleep" (System Preferences - Energy Save) or via Hotcorner or keyboard shortcut should also put all displays (and only them, not the entire Mac) to standby. Unfortunately this only blackens the Displaylink connected display.
