Can't enable secondary monitors after I switched my monitors using a KVM

Good afternoon. I have a KVM that switches my Primary and side monitors between my desktop and work laptop, but my third "top" monitor doesn't switch and stays on my desktop, running Bazzite.

I switched them this afternoon to work on my laptop, but after switching back, it stayed only on the 3rd monitor. The other two monitors that switch were disabled. I tried to enable them, but could only have one enabled at a time, with the error "Gaps between displays are not supported. Make sure all displays are touching." I've rebooted twice, with once in the :1 partition, as well as deleting /home/marco/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json but it doesn't seem to reset my display settings. Any help to reset or restore my display settings would be appreciated!
Solution
Re-tried deleting /home/marco/.config/kwinoutputconfig.json but this time in a TTY session (CTRL+ALT+F4) on the login screen before logging in. Then rebooted and logged in again, this time it worked and my display settings are reset.
