This does allow me to switch back and forth without having to undock/redock. But of course now both monitors dont switch over to the desktop because the pass through is not there and I would have manually change the source on the U3419W.
We know the monitors are functioning OK. If you are sure that the Latitude 5411 drivers are up to date (BIOS, Intel Thunderbolt Controller, Intel Thunderbolt Controller Driver, Intel Chipset), and the WD19TB Firmware Update is up to date, using that workaround, for now, is the only thing you can do. I think that one of those (Latitude or WD19TB) is having an issue re-negotiating the monitor daisy chain setup once you leave the Latitude 5411, go to the Desktop PC, then back to the Latitude 5411. Which points to a driver issue.
Alright. In your original setup what resolutions are the monitors outputting at? Have you tried lowering the resolutions and the tried switching sources?
Thank you for trying this. Do let us know if you have been able to swap the cables, or try using another WD19 to see if the behavior is persistent on that one as well.
Kind of my thought as well. Can you think of any reason why the D6000 would not work w/ daisy chaining? Does it support that? I guess I havent checked to see if the firmware is up to date on it which I could try.
The work around for now is just to have them hooked up individually both from the dock and desktop and created two hot keys, one for each monitor to switch back and forth. I suppose an extra 3 key strokes is not the end of the world

Unfortunately I do not have another WD19 to try out.

Just confirmed the D6000 firmware is up to date and still not working.

Ideally, there should be no reason why it should not work

Please send us a private message with the serial number of the dock or its service tag.

You could check the firmware updates and see if it helps.

MarcusInCO,
Dell Dual Video D1000, USB 3.0 D3100, and Universal D6000 Docking Stations do not support Daisy Chain functionality. Click here for information.

Got it, but the WD19 does.
The work around for now is just to have them hooked up individually both from the dock and desktop and created two hot keys, one for each monitor to switch back and forth. I suppose an extra 3 key strokes is not the end of the world
Weird it doesnt work though!
