Same here with MBP 2018 and DisplayLink v5.1. Even Java Control Panel does not start from System Preferences in clamshell mode.
Probably has to do something with the fact that Java wants to switch graphics cards on startup, but is confused to find DisplayPort instead. Just guessing though.

Java software works fine if you start it with DisplayPort not connected and connect it later.
