Public bug reported:

With a dual-screen setup (e.g., notebook monitor plus video projector on
HDMI cable), when starting a presentation in LO Impress (Slide Show ->
Start from first slide, or F5), the external monitor turns black with
something that looks like scrollbars to the right and bottom, while the
primary monitor only shows the slide editor instead of the presenter
console.

Steps to reproduce:
 - Install libreoffice 1:6.2.2-0ubuntu2 in Ubuntu 19.04.
 - Attach secondary monitor / projector.  Extend desktop to the right.
 - Start soffice, create new Impress presentation using an arbitrary template.
 - Press F5.

Expected behavior:
 - LO Impress shows presenter console on primary and the first slide on 
secondary monitor.

Actual behavior:
 - Slide editor on primary, black screen with scroll bars to the right and 
bottom on secondary monitor.

Workaround:
 - Click around on the black area, the presentation (together with the 
presenter console) may show up at some point.
 - Or install LibreOffice 6.2.3.2 from libreoffice.org, works out of the box.
