It appears that there are some missing packages in dom0. I solved this
by installing kscreen:

$ sudo qubes-dom0-update kscreen

This made KDE recognize my external monitor, but I still couldn't find
the configuration tool in System Settings. However I figured out that I
could open it like this:

$ kcmshell5 kscreen

It would be nice if it could recognize the settings in the end after the restart ( kscreen) or if the problem would be solved after 2 years without doing additional work to get it running

@TheBubblePopped: It looks like this bug was resolved back in Jun-Jul 2016 (which is why it's been closed since then). I'm guessing that you're experiencing a regression, so I'm reopening this.
