KScreen screenshot of my displays

SUMMARY:
Two identical displays plugged into different DisplayPorts are indistinguishable. Every clean install of KDE, I have to mess with settings and guess which monitor is the correct monitor. As shown in the attachment, there is nothing in KScreen to guide me as both displays report the same name/info.

OBSERVED RESULT:
Identical display names


EXPECTED RESULT:
More distinguishable factors such as connector names included on the applet

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version:  5.25.1-1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.95.0-2
