External Monitor in top HDMI Port of Dell D6000 Blinking off at random intervals

I have two external monitors connected via HDMI through a D6000. They worked fine but recently one monitor is blinking off while in use. Sometimes this will happen a few times in a row and then not happen for several hours and then happen again at different intervals.

here's what I've done:
1) tested and replaced cables
2) clean/full install of displaylink drivers
3) full reinstall of displaylink drivers

It appears to only impact the monitor plugged into the top HDMI port. If I switch the monitor plugged into that port, that becomes the monitor that blinks.

I think this might have started happening after the most recent Windows update.
