The problem described above is 100% reproducible on my system, but I found a workaround. After steps 1-4, the error dialog appears: "The selected configuration for displays could not be applied". Dismiss the dialog. In the Displays control panel, press the "Apply" button again. This results in the external monitor being enabled in extended desktop mode, which is the goal.
