Ubuntu 21.10 Impish is installed, although this problem existed under Ubuntu 21.04 too. If I log in using Wayland (the default), the initial window position of any app is always in the middle (half on the internal display and half on the external monitor). No setting that I have found appears to be able to change this behavior. If I switch to Xorg, this problem does not exist. With Xorg, the app window always opens on the primary monitor (the external one, in my case). This is the preferred behavior.
