Description

when i change monitor location from auto-x to another auto-y (left, right, up, down) it doesnt automatically update the positions when i save the config.

when i change another setting like hertz, the monitors goes to intended positions after save.

How to reproduce

1. add second monitor
2. make one auto and other auto-left
3. save
4. change auto-left to auto-right
5. save
6. check monitors

do you change it in the config or via hyprctl keyword?
