When the laptop is docked kscreen does a great job displaying the laptop screen, a VGA connected monitor, and two DisplayPort connected monitors.  I am impressed and very happy with this setup.

When I undock the laptop, and then re-dock it, the DisplayPort monitors do not work, and there are multiple copies of the DisplayPort monitors.
See after re-docking attachments.

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Plasma 5.25 or 5.26?

If it is, please change the status to CONFIRMED when replying, and paste the output of `kscreen-doctor -o` when it's working properly, and then right after you make the bug happen. If not, or if you can't because you no longer use this setup, you can change the status to RESOLVED WORKSFORME. Thanks a lot!
