Just to double check, you mean the display really is broken in this
regard, *not* that the driver is unable to read the EDID?
Does your monitor have other connections than HDMI? Can you try to see
if they produce a valid EDID? It may be possible to use that EDID for
HDMI using the EDID firmware mechanism.

Have you tried without the dock to reduce the number of failure points?

Finally, dmesg with drm.debug=14 from boot to the problem, including the
above attempt with xrandr, might prove useful.
