Troubleshooting • Monitor Locking up

I currently have a two monitor setup on a Pi5.

Due to other restraints, I'm using X11 as the window manager.

As such, here are the commands I'm using to turn on and off the monitors:

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off
DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-2 --off

DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto
DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-2 --auto --right-of HDMI-1

The monitor on HDMI-2 will randomly lock up either On or off, and stop responding to XRandr commands. This monitor works fine in Windows and Mac OS powering up and off via HDMI Commands.

Is there something else I can use that would prevent lock ups?

Thanks!
