Interesting. I am on a P1 gen4 with a nVidia card (so, a similar hardware 
config), and I simply cannot get any X when using the "discrete" UEFI setting.

In "hybrid" mode, initially `kernel-latest` here also meant no X. Only after 
creating an `xorg.conf` file and *explicitly* setting "modesetting" driver for 
the integrated card I got X to work with `kernel-latest`. X was working out of 
the box with the original kernel though in "hybrid" mode (I am guessing some 
timing changes leading to card initialization happening in different order or 
some such).

HDMI ports refuse to work in X regardless of what I do. Tried the binary 
driver, tried nVidia modesetting, tried nouveau. Tried "hybrid", tried 
"discrete". To no avail. Best I got was the Qubes loading screen and FDE 
password prompt on the external monitor -- both in "hybrid" and "discrete", 
only with binary driver and nVidia modesetting.

Enabling nVidia binary driver and configuring it in `xorg.conf` always ends in 
this line in `Xorg.0.conf`:
> Failed to allocate push buffer

What a mess!

No it doesn't. See https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/7373. Does

Does unchecking the “Mirror displays” option (in Q → System Tools →
Display) also work?  If not, that’s a bug; please report it.  If so,
that’s a user experience problem and should also be reported.

To get the multiscreen setup to behave properly, I had to switch of the 
compositor:

` Q → System Tools → Window Manager Tweaks → Compositor → uncheck “Enable 
display compositing” `

Installing `kernel-latest` in `dom0` (which currently brings in 5.16) and 
setting graphics to `discrete` in the BIOS renders the on board HDMI port 
active. `Hybrid` graphics settings results in a black screen when the display 
manager comes up.

Still having issues with the screens only being shown mirrored, but I'm getting 
somewhere.

No luck whatsoever with the USB-C dock. Pointers highly appreciated.
