I just wanted to get back to this topic and ask if you have found a solution that works for you. Also you mentioned that a proper hub from Asus might solve this problem. Do you have a hub in mind that solves this problem ?
Hi,
right now I am facing the same issue and I am still searching for a better solution. Until then I would probably use a USB - C to HDMI cable. I don't think that the monitor supports power output through HDMI. Maybe this can help you.
