Make sure you update your computer bios, download and install the graphics amplifier driver from alienware website. boot in safe mode, use ddu to uninstall all nividia drivers. Shut down computer, plug in graphics amplifier, boot computer, install drivers for 1080ti. Reboot.
Like suggested before, make sure you open nividia control panel and set 3d options to prefer high performance graphic card.
Also like stated before, you could disable the onboard 1080 before trying these steps.
I have done the same with my alienware laptop 2016 17 R3 and a evga 1080ti sc2 gaming hybrid.
It was really just plug and play for me. I had no issues. I just followed what i put in the start of my response.
I will check on things when i get home to see if i missed anything, but it was really simple for me.
I even cut out a window and put in some plexiglass so i could view the glory...
