What Happened

When I tried turning on the Mirror Display option for my TV, UI scale would increase by a lot. I would've turned off the option but I can't access the toggle since it's at the bottom of the window. My TV starts showing the "Unsupported Video Signal" screen with Night Light on and off, even though it works fine without Mirroring.

Expected Behavior

When turning on the option, the displays would blink, and the external display would be affected while the main display stays the same.

Steps to Reproduce (based off of complete assumption)

  1. Open Display Settings
  2. Connect a HiDPI display alongside a LoDPI display
  3. Turn on Mirror Display

For me it's resolvable by switching to 2x DPI (the one it swapped to) to update the ui and then back to 1x again

This is still an issue with switchboard-with-plugs-6.0.2!
