Public bug reported: In the default configuration, resuming my T440s on the Lenovo ultradock results in not detecting the external monitor followed by a suspend.
If I open the lid while on the dock, gnome detects the external monitor and blanks the laptop display. Then, closing the lid results in suspend. As a work around, using tweak tool (or UPower) to ignore the lid, does prevent the suspend. But it is not automatic; each time, one must bring up the gnome control panel->devices->displays and manually select single display. Then the lid may be closed without suspend. This worked fine in 17.04, so I'm hoping that the provides enough clues that this can be fixed easily. Thanks! I am enjoying the new Ubuntu 17.10 generally, but this situation is annoying.
