Hello. I Have tried to google this, but all methods thus far have failed. Here is what I am working with:

Brand new HP laptop
2 external monitors
MCY USB-C dock

Plugged into the Dock:
USB mouse
USB keyboard
VGA to monitor
HDMI to monitor
Ethernet cable

Settings so far:
Laptop set to not power down or sleep when plugged in and closed.
Monitors set to only use external monitors.
Device manager set to wake from sleep on mouse and keyboard.
Device set to sleep after 10 minutes of no activity.

What I would like:
Device to sleep after 10 minutes of no activity.
Device to wake from mouse and/or keyboard use AND
both external monitors work WITHOUT opening the laptop.

Currently, I have to open laptop, wake with mouse or keyboard. unplug the dock, re-plug the dock and then the monitors work.

Thanks for your help, all!
 
no, I have the adjusted the power settings as stated in the original post:
Laptop set to not power down or sleep when plugged in and closed.
Monitors set to only use external monitors.
Device manager set to wake from sleep on mouse and keyboard.
Device set to sleep after 10 minutes of no activity.

Still having problem.
