Yes.

The WD19 dock has 2 hubs 0bda:5487 (USB3.0) and 0bda:0487 (superspeed).
There're 5 exposed USB ports (3 Type A + 2 Type C). Lower speed ports
connect to a sub-hub (3-4.3) of the problematic hub (3-4).

The other ports such as HDMI/DisplayPort, Gigabit Ethernet and Type C ports
are connected to 0bda:0478. So I can't connect any USB devices directly to hub
3-4. I'm only certain that the direct child (3-4.3) of the hub
0bda:5487 can't runtime
suspend. But what really matters to me is that all connected devices
(3-4.3.x) can
runtime suspend.
