Public bug reported:
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System
-> About Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS
Release: 24.04
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy
pkgname' or by checking in Software Center
mutter:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 46.2-1ubuntu0.24.04.9
Version table:
46.2-1ubuntu0.24.04.9 500

3) What you expected to happen
A desktop is connected to primary display DP-1 (arranged as the left
display) and secondary display HDMI-3 (arranged as the right display).
After using the GUI Gnome Display Settings to switch between mirror mode
and join mode DP-1 is maintained as the primary display, and the
arrangement is maintained.
The same results were expected when using Super+P to switch display
modes.
4) What happened instead
When using Super+P (gsettings shows this is mapped to
org.gnome.mutter.keybindings switch-monitor) to switch to mirror mode
and then back to join mode, the primary and secondary displays
unexpectedly switched priority and arrangement: HDMI-3 becomes the
primary display, arranged to the left, and DP-1 becomes the secondary
display, arranged to the right.
This occurs despite the primary assignment remaining in the DP-1 logical
monitor section of ~/.config/monitors.xml after each display mode switch
using Super+P:
<monitors version="2">
<configuration>
<logicalmonitor>
<x>0</x>
