Description
When at least one (Windows) guest is started and a second monitor is turned off via xrandr (which might also happen when you detach a beamer or external monitor), the host system completely freezes.
Don't know if it happens with other guests too, but I could reproduce the hangup several times using an external monitor and turning off the built-in laptop monitor using:
xrandr --output HDMI1 --mode 1680x1050 --rate 60 --primary --output LVDS1 --off --output TV1 --off --output VGA1 --off --output HDMI2 --off --output DP1 --off --output DP1 --off --output DP2 --off --output DP3 --off
To make the external monitor the only active.
