Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Successfully connect AOC u2879vf external display by attaching HDMI cable
2. Remove the cable, output switches to the built-in display and external 
display goes black
3. Reconnect the HDMI cable again

What is expected:
The external screen should display the image (as in step 1)

What happened instead:
The system thinks the display is connected (see the xrandr output), but the 
external display is still black (no signal). The clumsy workaround is to use 
Super+P to switch to "built-in display only" and then back to "joint". After 
that, the external monitor comes back.
