Bug Description
I have a multiseat setup in my lab, with 8 CPUs for 16 seats, using Userful Multiplier. Epoptes works very well with all seats, except for broadcasting. When I try to broadcast my server screen to all clients, sometimes it doesn't show at all, sometimes it shows in the first seat of each computer only.
When I select the second seat (DISPLAY = :1) of a given computer and try to broadcast to that seat only, it shows in the first seat (DISPLAY = :0) anyway.
Nevertheless, I can access each seat remotely without any problem.
