Thanks for the update Christopher, unfortunately I no longer use the device or xrandr so cannot help with the occurrence of this then intermittent bug.

And there seems to be a kind of "venetian blind" effect too, with display line being alternately plain gray and containing the displayed content. Mercifully xrandr -o normal always (fingers crossed) returns the display to normal, though I notice all programs appear to have been collapsed into workspace 1 (of 4).
