I have to use xrandr after unlocking my computer

If I reboot my machine, the monitors are usually in the right order (not always). The Ubuntu display settings shows them backwards from what I think it should be, basically 1 is on the right and 2 is on the left. 2 has the dock. Every time my machine goes to sleep, after coming out of sleep, the monitors will look ok but the mouse will think the left of left monitor is where the right one is. To solve this I run xrandr --output HDMI-A-1 --right-of HDMI-A-0 every time after unlocking.



So how can I save this configuration so I don't have to do that anymore? I already did sudo cp ~/.config/monitors.xml /var/lib/gdm3/.config/ as was suggested on some other forum but that didn't help.
