OK, I'll attempt moving the Plasma config files.
Current setup looks just like the screenshot in the original post. Here's before:
Restarting Plasma now seems to have reset the panels to default out-of-the-box configuration, and changed the wallpaper, but no complete desktop on the laptop monitor. Here's a screenshot: http://postimg.org/image/m7q4r26yx/ "Xrandr -q" after moving out config files:

Well, the $60,000 question is whether there's a second desktop window. It's rather not on top of the wallpapered one, but is it on the black screen? (And can you eg. right click it to set a wallpaper, add widgets and stuff?)

No, there's no right-clicking on the black space. Adding widgets to the smaller wallpaper area constrains them to that area and they cannot leave its boundary.
This is the information on the black space:

I've found that for whatever reason, in the System Settings enabling the star icon under the HDMI monitor in the Display and Monitor section puts everything right. Unfortunately this change isn't permanent and needs to be done at every boot.

The star defines the primary output.
That sounds like a stack of bugs a) the primary screen not being preserved (libxrandr or kscreen fault) b) primary not falling back to one of the remaining screens (rather libxrandr, but maybe the kscreen daemon manages to screw it?) c) plasmashell/plasma-desktop somehow relying on the primary tag for something and no good reason. Do you have any config snippets in /etc/X11/xorg.conf* (which might affect this)? |

There's no xorg.conf files in that folder, but there is one in my home folder. I generated it recently in trying to improve the vsync tearing with my Intel GPU.
