Yes quite a few people have reported similar problems this year with
Ubuntu's newer kernels. But I don't recall any of them being proven to
be obvious software bugs. Just a more conservative bandwidth
calculation, usually solved with a new cable.

If you want to go to maximum quality, I recommend the Apple Thunderbolt
4 Pro cables to avoid such issues. But that's a lot of money so probably
the option of last resort.

We do have a software option that might help too. In
~/.config/monitors.xml you can add maxbpc:

      <monitor>
        ...
        <maxbpc>8</maxbpc>
      </monitor>

Choose 8 or 6 and then log in again. That should reduce the bandwidth
requirements, which might be enough.
