Thanks for pointing that out. I was wondering why so many
adapters/cables for sale only mention "USB" while also claiming to do
4K60Hz...

So Thunderbolt isn't required, only USB 3.1 Alternate Mode and a
powerful (probably only *integrated*) GPU that can link to it.

You might have hit some kind of bandwidth limitation using both USB-C
ports at once. Although that doesn't make sense at Thunderbolt 3 speeds,
it would make sense at USB speeds. And even if USB 3.1 speeds are being
surpassed to support Alternate Mode your chipset/GPU might only know how
to do it on one port at a time. So this might not be fixable...

Also remember to try 'Ubuntu on Wayland' which uses a completely
different code path for all this.
