Bug Description
I attached an external monitor to my laptop. The configuration is to span the monitors (no mirror):
left monitor: 1680x1050
right monitor: 1920x1200
they are aligned so the top edges match
I spread the workspaces (Super+S) and the display seems wrong. All of the workspaces (for both monitors) appear on the left monitor, and about 80% of the workspaces appear on the right monitor. See attached image.
I expected either a split (50/50) or duplication (100% on both).
Note that when I changed the right monitor's resolution to 1680x1050, spreading now does a 50/50 split (as expected?). See second attached image.
