I've got it working one more time.

* Disconnected the HDMI.
* Rebooted - with USB-C to the monitor connected.
* The external monitor did not register.

In addition to the monitor a Lenovo network adapter (8P8C for
CAT5/CAT6/..) is connected.

I tailed /var/log/syslog and /var/log/kern.log
I kept disconnecting / reconnecting the monitor, and _nothing_ registered in 
the logs.

Then I disconnected the network adapter USB-C.
Followed by disconnecting the monitor USB-C again.

Then reconnected the monitor USB-C and nothing.
I then kept the network adapter out, and turned off the power for the monitor - 
while connected to USB-C.

Then when I turned on the monitor power again the logs _finally_
registered the monitor, and it came to life.

I'll repeat that when connecting the same monitor with HDMI it consistently 
came to life.
But 1) USB-C connection should work the same, and 2) I'm usually connecting a 
second external monitor on HDMI.

I'll try to lock the screen / unlock, reboot, let it suspend, etc, and
see what happens next.
