With dual displays, setup is more complicated, instead of /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf
try /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the following content:
Section "Device"
Identifier "UHD620"
Driver "modesetting"
Option "monitor-eDP-1" "eDPcon"
Option "monitor-HDMI-1" "HDMIcon"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "HDMIcon"
HorizSync 30-135
VertRefresh 29-31
Option "PreferredMode" "3840x2160"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "eDPcon"
Option "Primary" "true"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "extScreen"
Device "UHD620"
Monitor "HDMIcon"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "intScreen"
Device "UHD620"
Monitor "eDPcon"
EndSection
Also, make sure your HDMI cable is up to specs for 4K.
