[Solved] Displaced menu from taskbar applications on dual monitors

Hi,

first post here I am giving Linux another try, and my preferred DE is and has been XFCE. Unfortunately there is a minor bug which is driving me crazy... displaced menus and tooltips from the icons in the taskbar. Clipboard works, but Network manager, synapse, Keepass - all context menus and tooltips appear ~400px above the bar at the bottom. This is an issue with a double monitor setup, as my secondary monitor is 1920x1080px and the primary one 2560x1440px. The difference between the latter is the gap I'm experiencing. When I remove the bar from the secondary monitor (or place it elsewhere) this works again. Is this a known bug, or am I missing a config somewhere?

Edit: Setting the bar on secondary monitor to "Hide: smart" solves this issue. It's not ideal, but it works.
