HDMI output gets disabled when monitor is turned back on

Hi.

I'm using an integrated Intel graphics card and only one display (Philips TV) is connected via HDMI (no matter if pluggin into a CEC or non-CEC port).

When I turn off the TV (via IR remote) the output is still enabled.

But everytime I turn it back on, the HDMI output gets disabled. I verified this with cat /sys/class/drm/card0-HDMI-A-2/enabled

I tried to work around that issue with a udev rule (thanks #archlinux) to run xrandr --auto if an "power-on" event (KERNEL=="card0", SUBSYSTEM=="drm") occurs. But this event isn't fired everytime I turn on the TV so I still have to log in via SSH and enable the HDMI output again.

When disabled, xrandr shows the screen connected but with no resolution selected. After running xrandr --auto everything is fine again.

Monitor power saving is completely disabled. There is no difference if the PC is idle for 30 seconds or 1 hour.

The main question is:
How to prevent the output from getting disabled in the first place?

Thank you for any advice.
