The issue was module renaming,  using nvidia-current fixed the issue. 

Thanks.

As mentioned here: https://www.ddcutil.com/nvidia/ for ddcutil (DDC/CI) (i2c
communication) to work properly in nvidia's proprietary driver. This conf is
needed in modprobe:

options nvidia NVreg_RegistryDwords=RMUseSwI2c=0x01;RMI2cSpeed=100


You have these settings in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-extra.conf

Please try
  options nvidia-current key=value...
Perhaps the options don't get activated because of the module renaming ...

I noticed you have a /etc/modules-load.d/nouveau.conf ... does it 
somehow interfere?
