Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the heads up! I went ahead and installed that driver from the
testing PPA, being careful not to install any other packages, and then
immediately disabled it. I'm not sure how I should be installing the
packages you linked, so the PPA seemed like the way to go.

Initially, I thought it had been solved, as I opened a few kitty
terminals and steam without the signal loss occurring for the first
minute or two. I was just in the process of replying to this thread in
Chrome, and thought I'd test once more, and it returned.

This got me thinking though, and I am now quite sheepish to admit that
creating a new Ubuntu user and logging in, I am unable to reproduce the
issue with both of the settings enabled. No doubt I should have tried
this first, rather than endlessly hoping driver upgrades would fix it.

I'm about 95% confident the issue is now with my existing Ubuntu user
profile, some program starting on login perhaps, or likely some
configuration which is not correct. My profile has gone through a few
distribution upgrades in this time, it normally should be fine, but no
doubt I've broken some configuration or have some Gnome extension, dconf
setting or something else that is responsible.

I am sorry for wasting your time. I will try to make time tomorrow to
backup and recreate my profile from scratch, testing as I go along. I am
quite confident that this signal loss issue, as strange as it is, is
related to my user profile.
