I have the 2019 HP-Spectre x360 convertible, model# 13-ap0033DX, product# 4WB76UAR#ABA.  Fortunately, the solution to my issue is not dependent on which gazillionth derivative of HP product I have.  The solution that works in this case is removing the display port cable that came with the ZR2440w, replacing it with an HDMI cable (though had to try two, as one didn't work), changing the input source on the monitor to default to "HDMI", and also ensuring to correctly sequence rebooting everything, e.g. shutdown both laptop and monitor (not just restart).  First power on monitor, then laptop, then tada.  So after 2.5 hours of researching/googling/changing cables/rebooting, this finally worked.  Oh and the adapter I originally asked about - a $30 generic version from Amazon that works just fine:

Hope this is helpful to someone else!
