--- Comment #1 from Simon Steinbeiss <ochosi at xfce.org> ---
This is a general downside of the whole design/setup of the feature of using
fixed outputs for this.
The fallback is that when a monitor isn't found that the panel will not be
hidden but moved to the remaining monitor/s. So this will lead to confusion.
And there is no "stacking order" of panels the user can really easily control,
so you get those random things you describe.

I think the only way to resolve this for you is to save your layouts with
xfce4-panel-profiles and activating them when you need them. I don't think this
is really fixable in the current panel (without adding a feature similar to the
display layout profiles).
