Bug Description
Hi,
I have Ubuntu 16.04 installed on a Dell Latitude 3350. I have also an external monitor, HDMI connected.
When I lock my screen (ctrl+alt+l) and unlock it after a while (without any system suspension happened) my program windows are all placed on one screen (the external one, because, I think, it is the closest to the top-left corner).
this misplacing happens when the HDMI external monitor does not go into suspension mode (some seconds after the screen is locked): I think ubuntu does not longer see two monitors and then aggregate all windows in one screen; when I unlock, ubuntu place all of them in the external screen, even if it was the one suspended, because it becomes the main (top-right) one.
Anyone suffer the same unwanted behaviour or can suggest a solution?
How can I force the external monitor to not go suspended, ad/or ubuntu to hold it alive?
thank you,
lorenzo
