Public bug reported:
I have two Dell U2715H monitors, one running in MST 2.0 mode, one
running in MST 1.0 mode (the terminator).
My laptop is plugged via mini display port into the MST 2.0 enabled
monitor. The MST 1.0 monitor is daisychained from displayport out on the
MST 2.0 monitor, to the displayport in on the MST 1.0 monitor.
I'm using the default cabling provided with the monitors.
I am running Ubuntu 16.04
The laptop is a Dell XPS 13 9333 - it is plugged into the mains.
Cables are not loose.
The setup works almost without issue, but:
Actual Result:
1. The monitors take it in turns to blink once - off, then back on, for 4
seconds at a time, seemingly randomly.
2. Any given monitor often blinks off, 4 seconds, then on when pressing play on
a youtube video
3. Any given monitor usually blinks off, 4 seconds, then on when dragging a
window from the other monitor, onto it.
Expected result:
Monitors should be constantly on, at all times.
