windows opening in wrong workspace when persistent workspaces is dissabled

[SadBoiLlama]

when persistent workspaces are dissabled and hyprland is newly opened,

• monitor id 0 starts on workspace 2 instead of 1
• focus starts on monitor id 1 instead of 2
• windows opened on monitor id 0 do not appear unless the workspace is changed

Can you share your full Hyprland and plugin config?

focus starts on monitor id 1 instead of 2

This one is caused by the plugin looping over all monitors to ensure each monitor is focused on its first workspace at boot. I'll try to find some time to improve this behaviour a bit.

Can you try with

cursor {
    no_warps = false
}

Yours is set to true. I haven't looked into what it does but it sounds like it could cause this.
