WindowServer will crash for me somewhat frequently (but not every time) when I disconnected my external monitors from my MBP. I have a 4k monitor plugged in via a DP=>USB-C dongle and another 1080p monitor plugged in via a HDMI=>USB-C dongle. Normally I close the lid before disconnecting.

Running a 10.15.7 16" MBP with the i7 and 5300m. I have automated graphics switching enabled.

I think it may be some sort of weird race condition / interaction between closing the lid, sleep, AMD drivers, and graphics switching. (See attached crash reports and stack traces).

Has anyone encountered this particular crash (with complete_connect_change in the stack trace?)? Has anyone been able to reliably reproduce it? Has anyone been able to fix it? :)
