Ghost display in XFCE

Hi all! After moving to the ASUS VivoMini VC65 nettop and installing Arch I noticed strange behaviour in XFCE: in display settings dialog I see two identical monitors (see screenshot below). Display is connected via VGA. If I uncheck "Mirror Displays" then my connected display shows only #2 ghost monitor, the main workspace remains on the #1 monitor

My X11 have only one config file:

[viktor@desolve-nettop ~]$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-intel.conf 
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "Intel Graphics"
    Driver      "intel"
    Option      "TearFree"  "true"
EndSection

XRandR shows only one provider:

[viktor@desolve-nettop ~]$ xrandr --listproviders 
Providers: number : 1
Provider 0: id: 0x48 cap: 0xb, Source Output, Sink Output, Sink Offload crtcs: 3 outputs: 6 associated providers: 0 name:Intel

I don't know what's the cause of these bug and i want to eliminate any ghost displays. It worth to say that when I used this display with laptop all worked great and without any issues. My nettop have VGA, HDMI and DisplayPort ports.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
