$ xrandr --output eDP-1  --auto \
         --output HDMI-1 --auto \
         --same-as eDP-1



You want HDMI-1 to be --same-as eDP-1, however I see HDMI-1 is set at
1920x1080+1920+0 and eDP-1 at 1920x1080+0+0, that is HDMI-1 is set --right-of
eDP-1. Try other placement options, if nothing works try setting HDMI-1
--off and then back --auto or --mode 1920x1080 --same-as eDP-1.


Just yesterday I had a like issue on an HDMI external projector at a
conference in a local University; I tried all sort of settings until it
worked, but I do not remember what was that finally worked and why other
settings did not. :-/
