My laptop is connected to an external monitor which I use as primary display. After few normal routines of suspend and wakeup everyday, I notice some UI elements in Unity don't respect UI scale settings anymore when my laptop wakes up and resume my login session and Unity even ignore the settings completely when I adjust around the UI scale in Display applet. Please see screenshot links below

This doesn't seem an unity bug, but rather a gtk apps issue... Unity-Control-
The only elements that are not scaling here are external gtk apps, which doesn't seem to respect gtk settings.
Plase provide the values you get from:
gsettings get org.gnome.
