Ok, now I'm totally confused. I switched the monitors back into their
original configuration, which didn't work when first tried repeatedly,
and now it works just as expected. Both monitors display the boot output,
when the GUI is started I get the normal display on HDMI0 and the default
wallpaper on HDMI1.

Maybe that's it. One of the micro-HDMI ports is a noticeably tighter fit
than the other. However, the problem didn't seem tied to that port. It's
certainly true that modern, tiny connectors are much more frail than older,
larger styles. Micro-HDMI seems to be asking for trouble. Same for USB-C.
