Unfortunately an inactive monitor that is connected is usually still
detected as a monitor. So the system can only try to do the right thing
and try to use it.

I agree with your suggestion that the live session and installation
should use clone mode to cover this and other potential arrangement
problems. So this is not a bug, but now an enhancement request.

** Package changed: xorg-server (Ubuntu) => gnome-shell (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
