I have seen this issue posted around the Internet, but nothing related to the issue I encountered. The short version is that there are two kinds of Nintendo branded power adapters for the Nintendo Switch. One is a charging adapter, that is intended to charge your console, and will only deliver 5V 1.5A to it. The other adds an additional 12V 2A supply that is required for the dock to function. Using the former will not work, and the console will show a message stating to use the adapter that came with the device. Over time, you may forget, like I did, that there are two versions. The annoying aspect to this whole scenario is that Nintendo branded power adapter are $30 + tax in Canada. For that price, and in my humble opinion, they should have included a USB C compliant power adapter that delivers the appropriate voltages for all of their device scenarios.
