Hello

When connecting a external monitor to my laptop through HDMI and choosing "external monitor only" in gnome-control-center, everything seems to work as expected, but when I close my lid it decide to switch back to the laptop screen.
The only workaround seems to be to choose "extend screen", close the laptop lid and click "Yes, continue with new screen configuration.
