Actually having said that Michael's suggestion works perfectly is not strictly true. Firstly note that for me it works best if I set the actions in System Settings > Power for lid close to Do Nothing, but even then I sometimes have problems with it not correctly recognising the external monitor on resume, so it starts up with the wrong resolution or not at all. If I hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 then Ctrl-Alt-F7 it generally recovers, sometimes I have to unplug the monitor for a few seconds and then plug it back in.
