Display pastellifying of colors

Every once in a while my display's colors became muted, pastel, and less vibrant, but only on one monitor.

As a reminder, can you please post the output of:

sudo lshw -C video

The make and model of the graphics card(s) you are using and your current Kernel version?

Driver looks ok...
Can you run

xrandr --listmonitors

Then, using the information for the second monitor found from the command above to replace EXAMPLE below:

xrandr --output EXAMPLE --set "Broadcast RGB" "Full"

Monitors: 2
0: +*HDMI-1 1920/521x1080/293+1366+0 HDMI-1
1: +eDP-1 1366/344x768/193+0+502 eDP-1

And

eDP would be the Built-In notebook monitor, withe HDMI being the secondary external monitor.
