This sounds like an HDMI connection/signalling problem. Please check to
see if a direct connection (no receiver), and even a new cable, exhibits
the same problem.

Title:
[i915] Screen "disconnects" when updating screen buffer
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I have a problem in which the screen will behave as if I pulled the
HDMI or turned the computer off (no source) for a few seconds until
the screen comes back on again. This happens a lot when I open a new
window, moves the mouse after it has been still for a while or I open
a new window or move the current window.
I can watch a whole movie without this problem but as soon as I pause
or touch the controls of VLC or move the mouse the problem reocurr. It
seems to be after a certain idle period most of the time, but not
always. Sometimes it happens many times in a row.
The setup is my home built media PC with intel integrated graphics
(i5-9400) connected to a philips 55" TV (55POS901F) through a Pioneer
AV receiver.
I have tried probably every possible resolution and screen update
frequency and the problem is still there.
