Your WSL versions:

WSL version: 2.1.1.0
Kernel version: 5.15.146.1-2
WSLg version: 1.0.60

Windows version: 10.0.22631.3155

Steps to reproduce:

it's not deterministically reproducible afaict but since upgrading from 2.1.0 to 2.1.1, often when i disconnect my laptop from two external monitors, one of them a 4k one, my windows of xapps disappear (nothing unusual about, that has happened before) but afterwards no window reacts to x-commands (e.g., via xdotool or alike) and no new xapp can be started (e.g., an xterm just hangs in shell but doesn't show up). Once i hibernate and resume, the existing windows do react again but the hanging xterm still hangs (but can be killed and a new xterm succeeds)

WSL logs:

pulseaudio.log
stderr.log
weston.log

WSL dumps:

Note this core is from two days ago, so not directly triggered by the last observation of the hang. But just in case ....
core.weston.gz

Expected behavior:

Ideally, windows should all still be visible after a disconnect or at least should react to x-commands.

Actual behavior:

See above in steps to reproduce: X is unresponsive until a hibernate/resume cycle ..

A few additional observations:

  • if i reconnect to same monitors from which i just disconnected, then windows work again as expected and i can also start a new xterm
  • seems if window after disonnect is still visible and not off-screen, it also still seems to work as expected
