<pre>Looking at it a bit more it seems to be timing sensitive. If I run the
following without a sleep, or a short sleep, between the two xrandr calls it
will often not bring the screen back up, but if I up the sleep time to 5
seconds or more it seems to be pretty reliable.
Note the following also works without having to set the lower resolution first
as I had previously thought was required.
xrandr --verbose -q -d :0 --output DP1 --off
sleep 5
xrandr --verbose -q -d :0 --output DP1 --auto --right-of HDMI2
Occasionally I'll get an error like the following when running the commands:
X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 140 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 21 (RRSetCrtcConfig)
Serial number of failed request: 43
Current serial number in output stream: 43</pre>
