Displaylink and Ubuntu on M1
So I'm currently on Ubuntu 22.10 with Mesa and asahi-edge kernel. You need both to allow using primary GPU as source output. I'm using evdi 1.13.1 with the correction to set the module to the 1.12.0 to run the script displaylink from Synaptics for Ubuntu.

Help needed: Can't install DisplayLink Drivers for my dock. Fedora 37 Kernal 6.2 Evdi 1.12.0, RPM Release isn't working
The RPM version never worked for me. It's only useful for getting the services installed. After that clone the repo from https://github.com/DisplayLink/evdi and change to the devel branch. Run make and sudo make install. If you use SecureBoot you also need to sign the resulting evdi.ko with your key. After that restart displaylink.service or reboot and it should work. At least it did for me. I's been a while since I had to use it.

Multimonitor Issue - Hardware or Driver?
I'm afraid this might be a hardware issue, maybe with the cable. I don't have a second cable to swap out unfortunately. A new one won't be here until Saturday. And it seems like a hell of a coincidence for the cable to fail when there's other issues reported within the last few days that seem very similar.

Wayland vs. X – Overview
libei looks useful. But IDK why libei is necessary to run Barrier with Wayland?
For client systems, couldn't there just be a virtual /dev/inputXYZ that Barrier forwards events through
And for host systems, it looks like xev only logs input events when the window is focused.
Is xeyes still broken on Wayland, and how to fix it so that it would work with Barrier?
With Barrier, when the mouse cursor reaches a screen boundary, the keyboard and mouse input are then passed to a different X session on another box until the cursor again crosses a screen boundary rule.
Barrier is a fork of Synergy's open core: https://github.com/debauchee/barrier

KVM Switch for Gaming and WFH
I have a similar gaming/WFH setup (2 monitors at 1440p 144hz) and I’ve been using Barrier instead of a physical kvm, and it works really well. Not sure if you’re open to a software kvm but if you are, I’m happy to answer any questions about it if you have any.

Autoswap Keyboard Layouts based on Operating System
Have you tried Barrier? I casually used it to swap between my main rig and my MBP. Took a minute to get it setup but once I sorted it all out it worked pretty well. It has some settings and tweaks built in to address some of the layout issues you mentioned...
