I also have a Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 Workstation dock. With the X1 Carbon plugged into the workstation dock, the video works fine when using a USB C cable to connect the monitor to one of the dock's USB C ports. If I connect the dock to the monitor using an HDMI cable, I can only duplicate the screens and cannot extend them. I will try it again with the display port once I get a spare cable. I would like to keep the USB C port on the monitor open to use it as a standalone dock and bypass the Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 dock when needed. (Edit: Confirmed that the X1 Carbon has no issues when the dock is connected to the monitor using a display port connection.)
All of this seems to be related driver issues with the Lenovo machine. No issues when connecting my M2 MacBook air to the monitor using the USB C connection. The MacBook detects a 60W charger, and the USB keyboard plugged into the monitor works fine. The video also works fine.
Interestingly, the M2 MacBook Air plugged into the Lenovo Thunderbolt 4 Workstation dock works fine. It works even when the dock is connected to the monitor using HDMI (which, as stated above, did not work with the X1 Carbon).
All signs seem to indicate that the Thunderbolt Drivers on the X1 Carbon Gen 10 are the problem. I confirmed that they are running the latest version, so hopefully it will get fixed sometime in the future.
The monitor seems to be working fine and all of the functionality works as expected.

While the one USB-C cable solution (without the dock) works fine with X1 Carbon Gen 9 and X1 Carbon Gen 6 on my hand for everything (charge, video/audio, USB keyboard plugged to the monitor).
Both LG and Lenovo support just said it is compatibility issue that they cannot help, it is frustrating.
Have you found a solution to resolve the problem now? or still hoping for a firmware update that could fix it?
