Title:
  After display goes to sleep, sometimes external monitor is black

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  In a gnome session, my screen locks & turns off after a certain amount
  of inactivity (but the system is not in suspend).

  When I wake the display back up by moving mouse / hitting a key, it
  seems like my external monitor is redetected -- both internal &
  external screen blink black as if I had just plugged in my external
  monitor, and then _sometimes_ the external monitor stays black (but
  thinks it is receiving input).  Other times it's fine, but when the
  issue happens, the displays control panel still thinks the external
  screen is connected, just nothing is visible.  Unplugging & replugging
  the screen fixes the issue, and it happens maybe 1/2 the time the
  display locks.
