Hi
I verified this by rolling back the firmware to 1.0.20 with LVFS.
However with a problematic 1.0.22 (Release ID: 96582)...
Essentially everything still works, dock is detected, screens work, and my HP Elitebook 860 G10 switches to drawing power from the dock, but it wont charge the laptop battery.
UPower would report the laptop battery is "pending-charge" and just stay like that.
Previously a cold start of the laptop with the dock DISCONNECTED, then followed by connecting the dock after booting up, would work to get charging.
But with this firmware, even that rather annoying workaround doesn't work.
The battery will enter "charging" state for like 1 min, and then drop back to "pending-charge".
Like I said, the workaround is reverting the firmware and blocking that version with fwupdmgr, but thought its worth reporting.
