I had the bug crop up every week or so, until I did the following:

a) Do not boot up with external LCD conected.
Connect the LCD after you are on the desktop, and then use "xrandr --output VGA-0 --auto --outout LVDS off" followed by "xrandr --output LVDS --auto --left-of VGA-0" should work for you (you can't use your regular xrandr line, because then X will for some bizarre reason refuse to output to VGA-0, at least for me. "Forcing" it this way works...)

b) I set the following options in .config/xfce4-session.rc :
SaveOnExit=false
AutoSave=false
There is probably some graphical dialog for that, but... This was easier for me ;)

I have been free of the bug for the last 3 weeks (*crosses finger*)
