A few things that may help with this, these were noted under bug 1897185. In looking at logs when this occurred (observed on ThinkPads including T440s, T570, T480 all docked and running lid-down with external display, keyboard, etc); this behavior occurred when: -using a third-party nVidia driver for discrete graphics card; or -when a Logitech USB dongle for a Logitech wireless mouse was plugged in to the dock and the mouse turned on during power up; or -when the Dropbox app was installed and automatically loaded during startup. The behavior could be avoided by: -using the Ubuntu xorg driver for the discrete graphics card; -turning off the Logitech mouse during startup; -turning off Dropbox synching and closing that app prior to shutdown so that it would not load automatically at startup. Sharing this in hopes that it may help with debugging, and to make reproducing the issue easier? Thanks.

Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS. Internal graphics Intel integrated grafics and dedicated Nvidia Quadro NVS 4200M with propriety driver 390.116. Behavior independent of the graphics used. I do not know what to do now since the latest state of bug #1716160 is "fix released" and so I guess it should be part of the ubuntu version I use? Thank you very much.
