Title:
  Changing Primary DIsplay Flips Which Display Has The Dock

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On a fresh install from at least Ubuntu 17.04 up to 18.10, when I
  change Settings->Dock->Show on to a specific monitor on a dual monitor
  setup, this setting gets flipped if I change the primary display in
  Settings->Devices->Displays->Primary Display.

  For Example I have Monitor A and Monitor B
  After a fresh install Monitor A is primary with title bar, clock, etc. and the dock. If I change the dock to Show on Monitor B it moves as desired. But when I change Primary Display to Monitor B also, the dock immediately goes to Monitor A again. When I check the Show on setting it still displays Monitor B but it's actually on Monitor A. Selecting Monitor A will move the dock to Monitor B.

  
  Description:	Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS
