After today’s update to kernel 6.8.0-59 (and the corresponding
Xwayland/Mutter upgrades), the HDMI monitor is no longer detected when
the Thunderbolt (DP‑ALT) dock is connected.

On kernel 6.8.0-57 with the previous graphics stack, the internal
display, HDMI output, and docked monitor all worked together correctly.

** Description changed:

  On Ubuntu 24.04 LST with the stock kernel 6.8.0‑59‑generic, when I
  connect two external monitors—one via the laptop’s HDMI port and one via
  a Lenovo Thunderbolt dock (DP‑ALT pass‑through)—the HDMI‑connected
  monitor is no longer detected (it vanishes from xrandr). If I unplug the
  dock, the HDMI monitor returns; even if I boot an older kernel
  (6.8.0‑57), both monitors don't work simultaneously.
  
  Expected behavior:
  Both external monitors (HDMI‑2 and DP‑6), and the internal eDP‑1, should be 
detected and driven simultaneously.
  
  Actual behavior:
  Only eDP‑1 (internal) + DP‑6 (dock) are active; HDMI‑2 is not even listed by 
xrandr.
  
  Hardware:
  
-     Laptop: Lenovo T480s

-     Dock: Lenovo Thunderbolt Dock (DP‑ALT, no MST)

-         DP‑6 2560×1440 (via dock)

  Steps to reproduce:
  
-     Boot into kernel 6.8.0‑59‑generic.
+     Boot into kernel 6.8.0‑59‑generic.
  
-     Log in to Ubuntu on Wayland or Xorg.

-     Connect a second monitor to the Thunderbolt dock.
+     Connect a second monitor to the Thunderbolt dock.
  
-     Run: xrandr

  Observe that DP-6 is “connected” but HDMI-2 is missing.
