Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:
- attach external Full-HD monitor (e.g. via HDMI)
- use kscreen to "Unify outputs" (Fn+F7 on my Lenovo T460p, or using the "Display Configuration" tray applet)
- internal monitor is now down to 1920x1080, showing the same content as the external one
- use kscreen to "Switch to laptop screen"

Expected behavior (seen up to and including Ubuntu 21.04):
- external monitor goes black
- internal monitor returns to native resolution (2560x1440 in my case)

Actual behavior (since Ubuntu 21.10):
- external monitor goes black
- internal monitor stays at 1920x1080
