scale factor for some java apps

Hi
I've a strange issue. When running some java applications (e.g. jetbrains toolbox and other apps, minecraft), the scale factor seems to be 2x for some reason. I've checked
echo $GDK_SCALE
echo $GDK_DPI_SCALE
echo $QT_SCALE_FACTOR
echo $_JAVA_OPTIONS
but none of them is set.
also the gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.interface scaling-factor is set to 0.
this issue is fixed by adding  running e.g. _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dsun.java2d.uiScale=1' jetbrains-toolbox
why this happens? How to fix this permanently?
