The question is who's getting confused, either kernel or X. To figure this out, next time things are out of sync, please compare the output of $ xrandr with what's reported in /sys/class/drm/*/status: $ grep . /sys/class/drm/card0-DP-*/status Another question: What desktop are you using, and if you unplug a screen, does that general reconfigure the desktop size to disable that output? The zombie connector only sticks around as long as someone is still using it in the screen configuration. As soon as the reconfiguration has happened, it should go away. You can test this by manually disabling the output when it's stuck as on: $ xrandr --output DP-4 --off That should result in the delayed cleanup happening when you look at dmesg afterwards.
