I bought a new second monitor and got an issue with my dynamic xmobar setup. I use a laptop which is connected to both monitors via a docking station. This is the configuration I want to achieve with independent bars on monitor one and two. Note: when docked
I <u>do not</u> want to turn the internal display off, this has to be done in order to save a configuration in autorandr. If anyone has a suggestion to avoid this problem, feel free to share.</div>

Issue:</div>
<div class="elementToProof" style="font-family: Calibri, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">
When I plug my laptop into the docking station my rescreenHook gets executed which invokes autorandr to load my specified profiles, which - when docked - applies the rules for my docked configuration shown above. Xmobar spawns on monitor with ID 1 and indicates,
that there is also a second monitor displaying a different workspace but somehow there is no xmobar present on the other monitor (ID 0). When I run the command defined in my barSpawner for monitor ID 0, the xmobar is spawned and works perfectly fine.</div>
