Bug Description
Running a fresh install of Ubuntu 24.06 (ie not an upgrade from 23.10). Graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 3060 with 5120 X 1440 Samsung monitor. Configuration behaves as expected on xorg but switching to Wayland on login gives display resolution at ? X 1080. Settings application crashes under Wayland.
Until release of 24.06 this machine was running 23.10 which did not exhibit this problem.

I thought to try adding a new user which would have fresh configuration files. This new user experienced the same or very similar problems (xorg session screen resolution seems fine, wayland session screen resolution is ? X 1080).
On first login (which was an xorg session) the screen resolution was set to 3840 x 1080. I used the Settings application to change it to 5120 X 1440. The resolution did not change at that point, but when I logged out and logged back in again, it was at that point 5120 X 1440.
So I infer from this (perhaps wrongly) that the problem is not caused by some crufty old configuration file.
Also, the Settings app reports two monitors for both users, when only one is connected. Not sure why.
