Wrong resolution after resuming from sleep

I started having this weird problem some time ago, it's important to note that I haven't had this problem right after installing Arch.
After waking my laptop from sleep I get a brief black screen with "ACPI: unable to dock" error message and then the desktop shows up but with a resolution of 1333x750 which oddly enough does not match any mode reported by xrandr, and I can't manually switch to any other resolution untill I either log off and logon or reboot the laptop.

Here's the xrandr output, right after resume:

* I have an external tv connected to the laptop using a DP to HDMI cable, after booting I set the resolution using:

xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1600x900 --output HDMI1 --mode 1920x1080 --scale 0.833x0.833
