It turns out that when plugging in VGA cable through USB-C to VGA/DVI dongle the Connection Manager handshake can take longer time, at least on Intel Titan Ridge based docks such as Dell WD91TB. This leads to following error in the dmesg: thunderbolt 0000:00:0d.3: 3:10: DP tunnel activation failed, aborting and the display stays blank (because we failed to establish the tunnel). For this reason increase the timeout to 3s.
