The datasheet that I have for that panel lists HPD as pin 17. Also I used to have a setup with that panel and I distinctly remember hotplug working just fine. Perhaps this is an issue with a specific variant of the panel? Or perhaps this is indeed a problem with the cable that's connecting the panel to the board. It could be one of those cases where they left out the HPD conductor to save money.
