Occasionally there are LINK_ADDRESS sideband messages timing out with the Lenovo MST dock + Dell MST monitor(w/ in-built branch) setup I have. These failures lead to the display not coming up on boot. Power cycling the port corresponding to the MST monitor's branch device and resending the message fixes the issue. I am not entirely sure if this is specific to my setup. However, as the power state is toggled conditionally on LINK_ADDRESS timeouts, this should not affect the working cases.
