Bug Description
I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on my ASUS laptop with Intel+Nvidia with propietary drivers of Nvidia (I have 440.64 rn) and I connected a second monitor to use it, but I saw that I cannot use it, I just see a blank screen. I tried with a TV of my room and same. The funny part is when I start the laptop to work, I can see the logo of my BIOS and the ASUS logo in the second monitor, even the grub, but after that I can't see nothing.
When I reduce the resolution of the second monitor (800x600) then works, but even with that sometimes blinks to black again.
On W10 for example it works perfectly, so I deduce it's not 'cause my HDMI.
I tried with nouveau drivers and I have the same results btw.
Laptop Asus with:
Graphic card ---- Nvidia GTX960M
Processor -------- Intel i5 6300
I tried with Nvidia Prime to Nvidia, Intel and On-demand. None of them works. All of them with Xorg.
I have this with xrandr:

PD: When you select a specific resolution, the second monitor "works", but it blinks, the image showed via HDMI on the second monitor blinks. So is impossible to work with it. Since all this time I was searching about this and I'm almost sure this is a problem of the GPU's Intel. But I saw this problem on askubuntu just with laptops with hybrid graphics. Always with Nvidia+Intel. (Maybe AMD+Nvidia too, but I'm not sure if they have the same problem here).
WORKAROUND: I installed the 4.15 kernel, so at the moment I can work with this. Higher than 4.15 the second monitor doesn't work. Tested until 5.8 and without good results. Just with 4.15.
