Title:
  Closing laptop lid doesn't suspend with external monitor plugged in

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I wish to have my laptop suspend when plugged into my dock with an
  HDMI display added. Instead, the system stays on with the monitor
  becoming the primary display. Suspending manually will work.

  I have tried editing logind.conf and uncommenting
  HandleLidSwitch=suspend and the other related items but to no avail.
