--- Comment #6 from TraceyC <[email protected]> ---
There are multiple bugs describing the same or similar behavior for icon
positioning on the desktop not being saved. Since this is the oldest I see,
I'll use this as the main one.
While Bug 433867 appears similar, I'm not sure if the root cause is the same.
I'll add it as related but keep it open

I tested using the reproduction steps from this report on:
6.1.3 using a laptop and external monitor, Wayland
git-master using another laptop and different external monitor, Wayland

RESULTS
- 6.1.3 
At step 5 the icon positioning is changed so they are all on the same row
At step 7 they are also alphabetized 

- git-master
If I switch to the external display and choose Keep on the confirmation, icon
arrangements are kept.
If I switch the external monitor on and the laptop screen off, but let that
revert, the previously saved icon configuration is forgotten. The icons are in
one row, alphabetized.
If I then rearrange the icons on the laptop display and switch to the external
display, that display has the icon arrangement from the laptop display and not
the one I last saved on it

If I switch from the external back to the internal, the icons are alphabetized
and in one row again
