Title:
Gnome suspends or blanks external monitor when laptop is docked
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
In the default configuration, resuming my T440s on the Lenovo
ultradock results in not detecting the external monitor followed by a
suspend.
If I open the lid while on the dock, gnome detects the external
monitor and blanks the laptop display. Then, closing the lid results
in suspend.
As a work around, using tweak tool (or UPower) to ignore the lid, does
prevent the suspend. But it is not automatic; each time, one must
bring up the gnome control panel->devices->displays and manually
select single display. Then the lid may be closed without suspend.
This worked fine in 17.04, so I'm hoping that the provides enough
clues that this can be fixed easily.
Thanks! I am enjoying the new Ubuntu 17.10 generally, but this
situation is annoying.

I'm trying a kernel from mainline, just to see if that matters; it
doesn't. Same behavior on stock 17.10 kernel.
