Public bug reported: I've been using an HDMI chord to connect my laptop to the TV with Windows and it hasn't had problems, but once I tried this with Ubuntu, I experienced what seems to be a bug: when the connection happens, only the home screen (and mouse movement) of my pc appears on the TV, no other application or function displays. I found no answers about this on the internet, so I'm assuming this is a new error?
