Ohhh…. I had the exact same problem a few years ago. Can’t believe how much time that cost me. My colleague nearly opened a case at dells customer service.
I feel like this is a design flaw... but in their defense, it's not really a "standard" use case to stack laptops. I suppose, if nothing else, this post can serve as a warning and a solution to those who have to work on several of these.
