Since upgrading to Hippo, my Insignia Fire TV I use as a monitor doesn't come back after sleep even though my LG TV does. I have them as dual monitors extending desktop. Both are HDMI, though the Insignia uses a DVI converter since my video card only has one HDMI port.
Sometimes a reboot is enough to bring it back, sometimes I have to shut down and sometimes I have to pull the power plug (shut flipping the hard power switch isn't enough).
If there is a window on the screen that didn't wake up, I can turn the monitor off and Ubuntu will shift all of the windows to the visible screen, so the system's aware of the monitor on some level.

As suggested by Second external monitor not waking up, tried unplugging the monitor, waiting and plugging back in. still nothing on xrandr.
Any ideas on something to try to force a re-detect?
