Brightness widget in my panels.

SUMMARY

The brightness widget that resides in the panels on my desktop only show the brightness controls for 2 of my 4 displays.   See the attached images.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. It has done this ever since the brightness control was introduced - 6.2.1, IIRC.   Open the brightness control.

OBSERVED RESULT

The GL2460 monitor never seems to appear in the brightness control.   Both of the GL2450s used to appear but now only one does.  Not sure why.  The LG also appears.

EXPECTED RESULT

All 4 monitors should appear in the widget and be available to control the brightness of.   Ideally.

Thanks for the bug report. Both of the screenshots show the Display Configuration screen. It looks like you also meant to include a screenshot of the brightness controls in the panel. Could you please upload that screenshot? Thanks.
