A cheap USB-C hub can only output so many power and voltage levels at once. Looking at that device it's only a single USB C PD in and a single USB C PD out. Not a bad device, but not really a real charging hub if that is your goal.
Anker uses pretty good controllers. It's of course possible you got a bad one, but it's highly unlikely this is systemic.
Thanks for the comment! It wasn't meant to be a Dock replacement. Just a quick way to connect the keyboard, mouse and USB-sticks while at work, etc.
I like Anker products! I read reviews and comments from people using Anker Hubs without problem. So, without them being official supported I just tried it.
Well, hopefully this is something that can be fixed..
