The path was wrong in #6 (I forgot the /.config/

Copying

/home/<user>/.config/monitors.xml

to

/var/lib/lightdm/.config/monitors.xml

fixes this issue for me (see image attached).

Btw.: After upgrade to new HWE/Xorg I had to resize my monitors to get
rid of similar situations for the gnome session itself. That could be
done by reajusting resolution two times (go for wrong resolution and
back to right resolution). But that could be done via GUI (system
settings/displax devices). Be that a bug in itself or not, I think it is
not convenient, at least.

However, the GUI setting did not affect lightdm monitor settings. Only
copying monitors.xml to /var/lib/lightdm/.config/ did.

For lightdm, I think this is a bug, just because it requires non-GUI
user interaction. Average users should not be tricked into such
situations.
