Bug Description

lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 21.04
Release: 21.04

package version : kernel-image 5.11.0-16-generic

what I expect to happen : to show my desktop correctly on second hdmi monitor
what happens : static effect like shown in attached photo

Since upgrade to hirsute (21.04) from groovy (20.10) my hdmi port on my graphic card stopped to work correctly and started to display static effect on second monitor, as you can see from the attached photo.

Here it is mine videocards:
Code:

$ lspci | grep VGA
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] RS880M [Mobility Radeon HD 4225/4250]
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Park [Mobility Radeon HD 5430/5450/5470]

I was able to test it with 3 different kernels :
Code:

5.12.1-051201-generic # last mainline kernel
5.11.0-16-generic # last official kernel from hirsute
5.8.0-50-generic # probably a old kernel still there from groovy

Only the older one, 5.8.0-50-generic was working correctly with dual monitor with no issues.

Kind regards
