I have a brand new ThinkPad and just got Ubuntu installed and updated. I got the USB-C dock too and everything has been amazing and seamless (thank you Ubuntu!), except from the fact that the dock display output does not work.
In the Ubuntu display menu, the external monitor does show up, just like it should, but the screen remains black and the monitor does not "see" the laptop.
Oddly, when first setting it up it did work for a second, but was for some reason set to the lowest resolution (like 600x300 or something). When I went to the settings menu to change it to the native resolution, it flickered and then disconnected, never to reconnect again.
HDMI works fine and that's what I currently use (I know, my problem is not a real problem).
Here is the output of xrandr:
