I feel ya I also get this problem every so often and its quite annoying.
It isnt consistent for me so hard to trace down. It will be working away fine and I save v01, v02, v03 and then shut off for the day come back the next day no displacement in v03, if I get lucky it is still working in v01.

I also found that switching to openGL will force the displacement to recook but not an ideal solution as I much prefer the vulkan viewport when it is working correctly.

I have played with every setting in the display options refreshing the scene with the labs tools but nothing makes the displacement kick back in.

Sometimes I will create a very basic displacement setup and then copy paste the old broken scene into it. This works sometimes.

I thought perhaps it was just my card so tried new drivers, new houdini versions but same probelm.
If anyone has a magic solution for this, it would be great.

Been doing lots of terrains lately so loving this theme. Its always cloudy in Ireland and Ive always loved the way clouds move across landscapes. Volumes are two slow so Ive been playing around with skyfields as a 2d solution which is nice and fast.
