Not sure if it applies to the 16" but the 2016 15" was doing something similar if I would plug the display on any of the right USB-C ports.

Something to do with Thunderbolt proximity sensor, problem went away as soon as I would switch to the left side.

Thank you, this seems to have done the trick!

As I commented above on another similar suggestion -- power on right and monitor on left appears to be the trick.
