yesterday i got desktop to second monitor and signal is there since monitor has power and no sleep mode. i can see at boot monitor wakes upd and shows boot process as far as SDDM and after login in it goes laptop screen only and no option to switch to external monitor. Might be related NVIDIA issue since i remember similar things when connected to external using HUB and it wont see external screen if not direct connect to nvidia card.
laptop is hybrid/optimus system DELL XPS 15 9510 with 4K OLED touch screen. External was actually working when using iGPU only and i installed Nvidia drivers and signed MOK and was using without external screen when done that without hub/external screen
