I have two screens, one of them is Samsung Odyssey G3. This model has some sort of “deep sleep”, it takes more time to wake one up after a period of inactivity (i.e. AFK). As a result, all windows that are placed on this screen are squashed. See the attached screenshot.

I’m using Plasma, displays were configured through xorg.conf with nvidia-settings: https://pastebin.com/YQAjG1Bu The screen has “Eco Saving Plus” and “Off Timer Plus” features, which I’ve turned off.

Any suggestions how to fix this? I’m tired of manually resizing windows back every time.

    I’m experiencing the same issue with my monitors. I think it’s because one monitor gets registered later than the other. I’m sorry, I don’t know of a fix.

      Same here on manjaro Gnome. I also use my monitor Al’s sound output. Sometimes it also switches to another device after waking up

        Yea, it’s really quite annoying.

    Happens whenever my laptop goes to sleep and it’s really annoying. As far as I could tell it’s a KDE bug. The only fix (which didn’t work for me) is apparently to stop it trying to dynamically detect displays.
