Public bug reported:
I went to try out the different dock settings such as use on all
displays and the position on the displays and tried use on all displays,
but when I tried to switch back to showing the dock on only one display,
upon clicking the display I wanted it to show up on, the dock persisted
on both displays and the dropdown menu showed all displays again. No
matter what I choose, it shows the dock on both displays. Sometimes the
dropdown menu will have the display chosen, but will still have the dock
on both displays. More often then not it will have all displays shown as
selected in the dropdown menu and have the dock on both screens. Some
things of note are that I have identical monitors and the problem
persists after a restart.
Basically
1. I opened the settings app.
2. I navigated to appearance and selected all monitors for where to display the
dock.
3. I tried to switch back to my main display, and it did not work.
