Hi All,
I am using a Lenovo R500 (Intel built-in graphics) with wayland running KDE Plasma and am struggling to get multiple monitors to work at once, in conjunction with the laptop display. I can plug both in but only the LVDS-1 monitor and DP-1 will work in conjunction. If I unplug DP-1, VGA-1 will come on.
All refresh rates and resolutions are optimal. In Plasma when I go to display configuration all displays show up, are enabled and detect correctly, but only one of the two externals will display at a time.
Physical layout: Laptop > right >> VGA1 is portrait >> right >> DP-1 is Landscape. I want each monitor to extend the next.
I am fairly certain that I have gotten this setup (all 3 displays) working in Sway previously, but I may be mis-remembering here.

I have tried searching both the Forums and the web at large, mostly I find people using X or having issues with swaylock/swayidle so none of the solutions apply. I would greatly appreciate if anyone could offer some advice to go about resolving this.
