Bug Description

Ubuntu 20.04 up to date, gnome session, no extensions.
Dual FHD monitor setup : joined, monitor (2) on top of the laptop screen (1) :
|2|
---
|1|

When I hit Ctrl-Shift-PrintScreen to copy a part of the monitor (2), no sound happens and the image copied gets the right coordinates... but in laptop screen (1) ! So it's a part of the wrong display which is copied.
