Second monitor works only when I lock the PC and the lock screen is on. But when I log in the monitor doesn't work, the display doesn't detect any source. The monitor is detected in Settings, but when I try to toggle the monitor on, the toggle button just goes back to off state. It won't let me toggle it on.

Can you provide more info? Laptop or desktop? How do you connect the second monitor to your computer?– Giulio SantOct 3, 2015 at 15:21

It can get really annoying. I hope it gets fixed soon. Mod for Elementary OS IRC (he is also dev for EOS) said some dev will look at this problem when I linked him this question.– neXOct 12, 2015 at 20:37
