I recently had a wine program crash after I tried to set it within itself to windowed mode. Now ever since, when I boot, I load my sound app and it loads on the smaller 2nd monitor to the right. ANY wine pop-up or program loads on the 2nd monitor to the right. Even though I've checked that my primary, larger monitor on the left is #1 both in displays and through amdcccle.

I've read through my xorg.conf but don't see why pop-ups windows and wine windows are loading to the smaller monitor.

My xorg.conf:

Has anyone seen this behavior before where Wine and other pop-ups menus default to loading on the 2nd monitor while most Linux programs load on the main? I am running a virtual desktop across both but in the past everything opened on the primary monitor first.
