(ASUS) Intel GPU HDMI Ubuntu 20.04 Second Monitor on HDMI blank screen/blink screen (laptop hybrid with Nvidia)
I installed Ubuntu 20.04 on my ASUS laptop with Intel+Nvidia! and I connected a second monitor to use it, but I saw that I cannot use it, I just see a blank screen (or just it blinks if I use a low resolution). I tried with a TV of my room and same. The funny part is when I start the laptop to work, I can see the logo of my BIOS and the ASUS logo in the second monitor, even the grub, but after that I can't see nothing. When I reduce the resolution of the second monitor (800x600) then works, but even with that sometimes blinks to black again. On W10 for example it works perfectly, so I deduce it's not 'cause my HDMI or TV.
PS: Tried with Xorg and Wayland. Tried with Mesa ver. default of Ubuntu 20.04 and the last version of git.
PS2: ----------- Since the ver. 4.16 of kernel the second monitor doesn't work. It was working on 4.15.

There's a video to show how works the second monitor if I adjust a low resolution. If I try with more resolution it doesn't work (on W10 it does perfectly on 1920x1080) VID_20200715_192517_163
