Starting the session is indeed when you log in, and the session ends
when you log out. However, when I have shut my monitors off, manually
or via the power manager, the arrangement has stayed intact.
I had occasion to look at the XFCE display application, and it has a
box you can tick labeled, "Configure new displays when connected." I
wonder if your display application is treating your displays when you
turn them on as "new". If your display application has a similar box,
try un-ticking it.
