Title:
  Built-in display brightness drops to 0 after monitor rearrangment

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I have a Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 13. I use it with an external monitor via
  HDMI at home and at work. If I re-arrange the monitors in the display
  settings (which is to the left/right) at home my laptop screen (build-
  in monitor) goes black. Turns out the backlight brightness gets set to
  0. I can just increase the brightness using the hardware button, but
  this is still super annoying.

  Note, I had to follow this to get the brightness keys working in the first place:

  Thanks!
