Monitor positions and resolution not saved

[Jenya G]

Upon boot, I always have right monitor ending up on the left and vice versa. I have to move them every single time after boot and after I turn off both then turn on both. It never saves my settings. Also, 1 of the monitors is 4k and other one is 2560x1440 max, I save them both to be 2560x1440 but after boot or turn off/turn on sequence 4k goes into max resolution of 3840x2160. I tried various options with xrandr but nothing helps.
