I know that it isn't fully supportted yet for Apple Silicon, however, it somehow works displaying two screens in clamshell mode.

The problems come when I left the machine inactive or when I disconnect everything because I go to bed. So, after connecting for the next work session, it have found two main scenarions:

* Audio does not work in my Plugable device (it recently found that can be solved by restarting the audio with "sudo pkill coreaudiod") This issue commonly does not allow macos play any multimedia content :(
* Clamshell mode does not work and all the screens shutdown. :mad:

Sometimes closing the Displaylink manager solves the problem. But, there are no infrequent cases where I have to restart the whole computer (I'm not using Windows to be doing that).

So, do you know if there any terminal instruction that allows restart, I don't know, screen recording or Displaylink service to avoid restarting the machine?
