Yes it sounds/looks like a signalling frequency problem if not a cable
fault.

Check out bug 1606103 where some frequency problems with the modesetting
driver are being investigated.

Title:
  1920x1080 HDMI output is corrupted in 16.04

Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ever since upgrading to 16.04 from 14.04 on my Lenovo x230 the HDMI
  output to a Benq W1070 is corrupted if run at 1920x1080 (native
  resolution). At 1280x720 the display looks fine. Looking at similar
  reports for other graphics cards it seems similar to cases when the
  frequency is too low. I've tested that the projector still works fine
  with the same cable and another computer. I've attached a photo of the
  kind of corruption that shows up on screen. It's mostly green/magenta
  pixels sprinkled across the screen.
