Lutris games consider secondary monitor to be primary

Summary: I'm having an issue with multi-monitor use in Bazzite 41. KDE behaves properly with my "Primary" monitor. But Lutris games are seeing my secondary monitor as "Primary".

Issue:


A game in Lutris (World of Warcraft) and others think my secondary monitor is "primary".

Desired outcome:


I want to be able to start a freshly installed game on the primary monitor by default. Ideally without needing to tweak in Lutris on each new game install (but that's ok as a workaround if nothing else will solve).

For WoW ... luckily the game has a monitor selection choice. "Primary" monitor selection goes to my secondary monitor, but it also has discrete selection. This is more about wanting to fix the default behavior going forward as I start using Bazzite as my daily driver.

Details


  • I have my monitors set where my primary is in the DP-1 port of my GPU.
  • KDE is set for that monitor to be "Primary" using System > Settings > Display
  • kscreen-doctor --outputs agrees with the settings app, showing DP-1 as priority 1
### System Background

  • system image: bazzite-nvidia-open 41
  • CPU: 5800X3d
  • GPU: Nv 3080ti FE
  • Monitor1 (on DP-1 port): Dell AW3821DW
  • Monitor2 (on DP-3 port): KTC 2560x1440
