Summary: Icons position on the desktop get scrambled with
multimonitor
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.2
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: [email protected]

SUMMARY
Icons position on the desktop get reset whenever one monitor gets disconnected.
I have 2 monitors, both same resolution and refresh rate (2560x1440, 120Hz).
One on the left is primary. Using X11
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Shut off the left monitor after placing icons on the desktop a certain way.
Primary monitor switches and icons stay in place.
2. Turn the monitor back on
OBSERVED RESULT
The icons are reset and arranged as per the menu, in my case, left to right.
And even though they are supposed to be unsorted, they are alphabetically
sorted.
EXPECTED RESULT
Icons should stay as they were placed
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I've used both scripts and Display Configuration. When using DC, I can see that
the 2 monitors seem to "merge" for a short moment (as if they're both at the
same position), before going back to whatever i setup.
For example, I disable the monitor, enable it, put the left monitor position
0,0, primary, the right one is at position 2560,0. After clicking apply, the
monitors flash, both show at 0,0, icons get scrambled, position is restored as
per the settings.
Using both xrandr or kscreen-doctor in a script will result in the same bug.
