Thanks for the bug report but that's two separate issues. It's likely
the scale issue is just from using a Xorg session when you need to be
using Wayland to scale displays independently.
Please confirm which issue you would like this bug to be about and also
run:
apport-collect 2075983
on the affected machine.

Title:
Strange behaviors with external displays over Displaylink
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Release: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
gnome-shell:
Installed: 46.0-0ubuntu6~24.04.1
Expected behavior (As seen on Windows/macOS):
* When plugging in external displays, they should be able to scale
independently of the internal display
* When external displays are active through a display link dock, closing
the laptop lid should invoke suspend
The above behavior would match the behavior seen when displays are
connected directly to the laptop.
Actual behavior:
* External displays connected through a DisplayLink dock are forced to the
same scaling ratio
* Closing the laptop lid when external displays are connected through a
display link dock results in the internal display turning off but no sleep
behavior
* This happens regardless of config changes with dconf, upower, or logind
This is primarily a usability issue for laptops with limited ports for
IO and extremely high resolution internal panels.
