Bug

Description

Usually (but not necessarily) after waking from suspend and moving a monitor on monitor 1 to monitor 2, the first workspace is mapped to the incorrect monitor.

According to my configuration, workspaces 1-5 are on DP-1 and workspaces 6-10 are on HDMI-A-1 - however if you see the output of hyprctl workspaces

$ hyprctl workspaces
workspace ID 4 (4) on monitor DP-1:
	windows: 1
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x19a7770
	lastwindowtitle: [2] WebCord - #hyprland-general (Church of Hyprland)

workspace ID 9 (9) on monitor HDMI-A-1:
	windows: 1
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x1a6a630
	lastwindowtitle: Steam

workspace ID 2 (2) on monitor DP-1:
	windows: 1
	hasfullscreen: 1
	lastwindow: 0x1995f30
	lastwindowtitle: Firefox

workspace ID 1 (1) on monitor HDMI-A-1:
	windows: 2
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x19d0d00
	lastwindowtitle: foot

you will see that workspace 1 is on the second monitor, which is HDMI-A-1

How to reproduce

1. Wake up from suspend
2. Move the active window from workspace 1 to the second monitor
3. switch to a different workspace on the second monitor
4. switch back to workspace 1, it'll be on the second monitor

I have a feeling that this has to do with the order monitors are enabled. My motherboard recognizes HDMI before DP, so HDMI-A-1 is treated somewhat like a "main" monitor.

From the above information we cannot know more relevant content.

I assume by "we" you mean people who know what they are talking about, which you clearly does not include you.

I have the same issue here. I have setup my monitors as follows:

monitor=DP-1,preferred,0x0,1.6
monitor=DP-2,preferred,auto,1
workspace=1,monitor:DP-1,persistent:true
workspace=2,monitor:DP-1,persistent:true
workspace=3,monitor:DP-1,persistent:true
workspace=4,monitor:DP-1,persistent:true
workspace=5,monitor:DP-1,persistent:true
workspace=6,monitor:DP-2,persistent:true
workspace=7,monitor:DP-2,persistent:true
workspace=8,monitor:DP-2,persistent:true
workspace=9,monitor:DP-2,persistent:true
workspace=10,monitor:DP-2,persistent:true

The workspaces are placed correctly at boot but after I either:

1. Suspend and turn the machine back on
2. Turn a monitor on or off

The monitors at get scrambled and the pattern is seemingly random.

For example, this is the output of hyprctl workspaces after turning DP-2 off and on:

workspace ID 1 (1) on monitor DP-1:
	monitorID: 0
	windows: 3
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x358c990

workspace ID 6 (6) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 3
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x30c83a0

workspace ID 10 (10) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 2
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x317d340

workspace ID 7 (7) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 2
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x3124160


workspace ID 5 (5) on monitor DP-1:
	monitorID: 0
	windows: 2
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x35a8e00


workspace ID 2 (2) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 0
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x0

workspace ID 8 (8) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 4
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x32597f0

workspace ID 3 (3) on monitor DP-1:
	monitorID: 0
	windows: 2
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x3577cd0

workspace ID 4 (4) on monitor DP-1:
	monitorID: 0
	windows: 2
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x2a80480

workspace ID 9 (9) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 0
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x0

workspace ID 11 (11) on monitor DP-2:
	monitorID: 1
	windows: 1
	hasfullscreen: 0
	lastwindow: 0x3677c40

Same issue here on a laptop with two external monitors. iGPU is disabled, so everything is running on the NVidia dGPU, hyprland 0.41.2-1 nvidia-dkms 550.90.07-3 6.9.6-arch1-1
