from OmegaPhil@startmail.com
After messing around with this on and off for months, I have found that the
radeon_scanout_flip error is irrelevant - when the third monitor is turned off
and on, sometimes DisplayPort-0 is reported as Disconnected and then Connected
- through monitoring the root window (xev -root), I can finally get into a
useful X events stream:

In the middle of that mess, there is a RRScreenChangeNotify event with width
3840, which signifies the invalid desktop state that I get as the result of the
problem - I've managed to smoke it out to xfsettingsd (part of the
xfce4-settings package) - it responds to the disconnection by disabling the
CRTC, and then when it reappears, it enables it without a clue of what the
monitor is, despite it being described in the xfconf settings - and therefore
not putting it in the right place again.
xfsettingsd's version of the events:

=========================================================
I'm assuming the important part from the X perspective is when
xfsettingsd/displays.c:xfce_displays_helper_screen_on_event realises the
display is Disconnected, and runs xfce_displays_helper_disable_crtc which calls
XRRSetCrtcConfig with RRCrtc->mode of None/NULL.
If the daemon is killed, no reconfiguration occurs and the desktop keeps its
correct configuration - presumably at the X level its just treated like a
monitor powering off and on - so I guess the next step is for me to understand
what is causing the Disconnect event to be fired through the stack, since the
monitor is definitely not disconnected in reality.
Kudos to Michel for the guess earlier.
