Bug Description
I am running Ubuntu 19.10 on a Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme. I have a CalDigit TS3 Plus USB-C hub connected to one of the laptop's USB-C/Thunderbolt ports. The laptop supports charging over USB-C. When I try to charge from the hub over USB-C, Ubuntu seems to frequently "drop" the connection to the hub and loses connection to the stuff attached to the hub (e.g., an external monitor connected to the hub by USB-C to displayport, an ethernet connection, and USB devices). After a few seconds, the computer reconnects to these devices.
I disabled TLP but the problem persists.
When I have the laptop's power adapter attached in addition to the USB-C hub, the problem does not appear and the computer does not lose connection to the peripherals.
