On SKL/KBL the USB-C -> native DP/HDMI conversion is done by an off-CPU
chip and the display driver doesn't have a way either to affect the
muxing.

Not sure why things work on DP-2 and not on DP-1, there is no port
specific limits on the CPU side that would explain this. There is a link
training failure in the log, so would be good to see more details on
that. Could you file a ticket at 
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues
providing a full log booting with drm.debug=0x1e for the working and
non-working cases?

Thanks,
Imre
