--- Comment #4 from Sollace <solla...@gmail.com> ---
I'm having this same problem with the following setup under Wayland:

Setup A:
Monitor 1 (external primary): 2560x1440@125%
Monitor 2 (external): 2560x1440@125%
Monitor 3 (internal): disabled

Setup B:
Monitor 3 (internal): 3840x2160@200%

I thought initially I could prevent the problem by reducing the display scale
on monitor 3 to make it larger than the external ones, but that seems to be of
questionable effectiveness when actually switching. I do notice that the
problem goes away so long as monitor 3 is enabled before switching to it fully.

So when switching to using the laptop screen you have to:
1. Open the laptop (or enable its internal display if it doesn't do so
automatically)
2. Unplug the other external monitors

Then when switching to the external monitors:
1. Plug in both monitors (ensure it is configured to extend to use all 3
displays so the internal one remains active)
2. Close the laptop lid which disables the internal display

In essence, so long as the monitor that is to become the new primary display is
active and part of the existing arrangement, icons remain where they were
originally when last using that display as the primary before. If the
destination monitor is inactive at the time of switching, then suddenly it
forgets the arrangement and icons become jumbled.

I hope this extra info will be helpful for anyone needing to reproduce this,
and for anyone who's perhaps looking for a workaround until the issue can
eventually be fixed. :)
