Description Charles Russell 2018-07-16 02:56:24 UTC
Hardware: Razer Blade 2017

When I plug in a second monitor connect thru my HDMI port. The OSD play keeps showing like the attached gif. The only way to stop it from showing the OSD and get control of my system is to stop "Kscreen 2" service in the background services. 

I am a developer in my day job, and I am willing to help in anyway possible. 

I believe the issue is with the intel-nvidia-bumblebee drivers. 
I think the since the HDMI port is connect to the NVidia graphics card that is not awake at the time the HDMI cable is inserted, that causes the problem. 

However, even I remove the HDMI cable the OSD still continue to flicker/pulse. I would really appreciate any insight into the problem if possible.

As for clarification, the issue occurs once I connect HDMI cable to laptop HDMI port, it will continue even if i remove the HDMI cable. The only way to stop it is, reboot computer or stop kscreen background service.

Thank you for you time and patience.

If you can, please change the status to CONFIRMED when replying. Thanks a lot!
