Windows randomly jumping between monitors after GNOME 50 update

Since updating to GNOME 50, I'm experiencing a frustrating issue where **windows automatically switch to different monitors without any user input**. I have three applications open:

  • Element - on the secondary monitor (notebook monitor)

  • Firefox - on the primary monitor

  • Thunderbird - on the primary monitor

Throughout the day, windows will inexplicably move between monitors on their own. For example, Element will randomly jump from the secondary monitor to the primary monitor, or Firefox + Thunderbird will move to the secondary monitor. The window layout/size will be preserved. This happens occasionally and doesn't seem to follow any predictable pattern.

Hardware:

  • AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370

  • AMD Radeon™ RX 7700S

  • Buildin Display 1920x1200 Scale 100%

  • Extern Display 49" UW 5120x1440 Scale 100%
