CUDA problem with eGPU

I am running a Windows 10 laptop with a 2080ti attached to it as eGPU. I installed CUDA and Visual Studio 2019. I compiled all the CUDA sample code applications with no issues. However, when I run any of the executables that need a GUI/graphics I get:

C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\CUDA Samples\v11.3\bin\win64\Debug>simpleGL.exe
simpleGL (VBO) starting…
GPU Device 0: “Turing” with compute capability 7.5

No issues at all with the non graphical/GUI executables, however:

Anything I am missing or doing wrong?

Does that problem only appear with these samples or also with 3rd party apps, eg OctaneBench

Not sure if 344 is a good score, but everything ran fine in Octane… recent games also run fine with no problems.
