I don't have any direct knowledge of this problem, but it sounds like
the built in monitor is not being recognized on boot. You could look at
the last boot in the journal using
journalctl -b
in a terminal to see what happens to the built in monitor during boot.
Type 
/drm
and hit enter to take you to the video setup.
Report any error back here.

Is it possible that you are missing the driver for the built-in
graphics?  This would especially apply if the graphics are nvidia and
using the nvidia proprietary driver.  Maybe you need to set up the
rpmfusion repositories to get the new drivers, then do a system update.
