Have you found anywhere that connecting eGPU to a desktop computer (not iMac or Mac Mini, but a Mac Pro) is actually fully supported by OS X and software? It sounds like OS and software is somewhat confused by what you are trying to do. Not to mention using a $1200 device for a task that can be accomplished better by a similar $300 graphic card without thunderbolt bottleneck.
If you connect eGPU Pro to Mac Pro 2019, and connect monitor directly to internal 580X, have you chosen eGPU in the "Render/Share GPU" in FCPX preferences? Without doing that FCPX will simply use graphic card connected to the monitor.
