Bug ID: 465747
Summary: desktop icons moved to secondary monitor upon login
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.27.0
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Desktop Containment
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: s_chriscoll...@hotmail.com
CC: notm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0

video showing the bug
I have three desktop icons that have been on my primary monitor for many
months. After upgrading to Plasma 5.27, these icons moved to my secondary
monitor. If I try to put them back to my primary monitor, they will be forced
back to the secondary monitor at the next login, or when restarting
plasmashell.
I have attached a video showing this bug in action on my system. In the video,
my primary monitor is on the left. To trigger the bug, I restart plasmashell
via the command "kquitapp5 plasmashell && kstart plasmashell". I also disable
my secondary monitor at one point via "xrandr --output HDMI-0 --off". This
causes plasmashell to crash to a black screen, but I figure that should be a
separate bug report.
Neither of these bugs occurred prior to upgrading to Plasma 5.27.0.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have two or more monitors connected to the PC.
2. Place some icons on the desktop of the primary monitor.
3. Log off/on or restart plasmashell.
OBSERVED RESULT
The icons have been moved to the secondary monitor.
EXPECTED RESULT
The icons should stay where I put them.
