It's interesting that reprobe triggered by 'xrandr --verbose' after unplug will
get the status back to "disconnected". But if I just do 'xrandr
--current --verbose'
before and after unplugging the cable, the output shows the same status
'connected'.

Here's the output of 'xrandr --verbose' before unplugging HDMI

And the output of 'xrandr --current --verbose' after unplugging the cable
https://gist.github.com/mschiu77/55756c0801046d49cd9bc3f87712b079

Then do 'xrandr --current --verbose' to trigger reprobe, the ouput

It means that the HDMI unplug not detected by the driver?
