Ubuntu does not recognize a specific VGA monitor
My Laptop (Dell Latitude 5480) does not recognize a VGA monitor(Samsung SyncMaster 2243BW) using Ubuntu 16.04LTS. If I plug it in, nothing happens, I can only use the built-in screen (or any HDMI monitor I plug it into).
The said VGA monitor itself works, as I use it with other devices and it connects fine through the cable.
My laptop connected without any problems to a VGA monitor earlier this day (sadly I was just testing it out, and have no access to that display).
xrandr while the VGA is plugged in:
~$ xrandr

Update: I have tried this VGA not listed in xrandr output: Projector not working, Intel Kabylake Graphics and now sending signal to all of the channels, but the monitor still does not recognizes any signal.
