Wayland session: Internal display is black after sleep

[Zingam]

I have a laptop with Intel 630 and NVIDIA 1050 Ti, I have connected an external display via HDMI. I have set this external display as primary. I also chose a Wayland session. My Ubuntu 22.04 has all the latest updates as of today.

When my laptop sleeps after I re-login the internal display (connected to Intel 630 AFAIK) is black. It appears enabled in the settings and if I change it to be the primary it lights up.

I don't remember seeing this in an X.org session.

Thanks for the bug report.

The kernel log in CurrentDmesg.txt suggests the i915 graphics driver is having trouble resuming from sleep. We would like to see the whole log so please run this command after resuming:

  journalctl -b0 > journal.txt

and attach the resulting text file here.

Note to self - might be HDMI bug 1968040

I'm facing a similar issue. I'm also using Wayland and a Nvidia card. Let me attach the log.

Edit: Nope, apparently my problem comes from the screen being black but not suspended (while playing some audio). Suspending the laptop (by closing the lid or pressing the POWER buttom) and then waking it up solves the problem.

Let me attach you the log.

Jorge, please open a new bug from the affected machine by running:

  ubuntu-bug gnome-shell

Thank you Daniel, I just did (bug #1971674)

Some additional information + the included log.

1. During "sleep" the internal display appears to be powered off but the external is blank but powered on (which means it glows in the dark).
2. I tried to reproduce the behavior by "suspending". When I resumed both displays turned on but instead of a mouse cursor there was a huge white rectangle on the login screen. After I clicked, moved it around the normal cursor appeared.

[Zingam (registrirayme)]

This maybe unrelated but I'll write it here too:

Since 22.04 the mouse movement on my external monitor feels laggy, jerky, while on the internal display it feels ok. I think on Ubuntu 20.04 there was not such an issue. I use Windows (same configuration) and macOS too with this monitor and they are smooth.

After performing the above sleep experiment I think the mouse movement got smoother. Now only my external monitor is turned on.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Thanks.

Comment #8 confirms this is a duplicate of bug 1968040.
Workaround: Add MUTTER_DEBUG_ENABLE_ATOMIC_KMS=0 to /etc/environment. Although you only need that while using Wayland sessions...

Comment #9 is being tracked in bug 1970291.
Workaround: Select a Xorg session on the login screen instead of Wayland.

I have a similar problem using an external HDMI monitor connected to a laptop.

It happens with the blank screen after a period of inactivity (without using the screen lock).

After the screen has gone blank due to a period of inactivity, I move the mouse or press a key on the keyboard to wake up both screens. However, 1 of 3 things will happen:

1. The laptop's screen will wake up but the external monitor doesn't wake up.
2. The external monitor will wake up but the laptop's screen doesn't wake up.
3. Both screens will wake up as they should.

To get both screens to wake up, I right click on the active screen and click "Display Settings". Click on "Mirror" then back to "Join", then "Apply" then "Revert Settings". The blank screen then realizes it is supposed to be on and it wakes up. The other option is to unplug and re-plug the HDMI cable in, but I got tired of doing this.
