Default REAPER opening on wrong monitor

Hi, I'm using Debian and i3 window manager with 2 monitors, my xrandr setup is:

Code:
eDP-1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP-3 connected 1920x1080+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
REAPER should open on the active monitor, the one which has mouse focus, but it always opens on DP-3, which is not the primary, no matter where the focus is.

REAPER and Steam are the only applications I know of that behave like this, so there seems to be something wrong with their window placement methods.

Anyone else seeing this, should I report a bug?

Here (Debian 10, with two screens and openbox with arandr) Reaper opens on the monitor form where it was closed.

Welcome back btw.

Weird, must be a problem with my window manager then, but why everything works fine except these two? Hmmmm...
