Locking screen with dual monitor makes reordering the desktop icons.

distribution : Debian 13

package : xfce4-screensaver 4.18.4-1 amd64

Prerequisites : have dual monitoring (cloned).

Steps :

  1. Place the desktop icons where you want them to be (not everything on the left side).
  2. Lock the screen and wait for turning off (not just black screen).
  3. Wake up system and unlock the screen

Actual behavior : desktop icons have been reordered on the left side of the desktop.

Expected behavior : desktop icons are still where you put them.
