 No change in 15.04. I can add the resolution with xrandr, and after that I can use it. But after reboot, I have to do it again.

The upgrade got stuck with a black screen and no networking, but I eventually got out of it with the "apt-get dist-upgrade" dance from the console. I hope that hasn't messed things up.

It may matter that I've got the monitor's DVI port hooked up to my computer's HDMI port. It was the only way to get things working: the monitor doesn't support its full native resolution on HDMI, and the Haswell builtin graphics only supports the resolution on HDMI. But, the hardware can do it and it used to work from the settings GUI without hackery.
