A:Answer I placed a call to Toshiba support an they stated this model does not support external video over the usb Type-C port. So for however much you trust their answer. This does coincide with my own experience and trying to connect a usb Type C to hdmi adapter to an external monitor. I also tried a usb Type - C to display port adapter and that did not work either. Although there is a message when I attempt this that says, try improving the USB connection. Display port connection might not work. Try using a different cable. So it seems like something(maybe the OS) is detecting that a monitor is being connected, but perhaps it's not the cable issue but the fact that there is not video signal being sent out over it.
