The workaround for this is to use the Ubuntu config tool in System
Settings -> Displays. Drag the menu to the screen you want to be the
main screen and it will be saved across sessions.

Title:
  Nvidia driver fails to save primary display

Status in “nvidia-common” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have two monitors (same model) and want the left one to be the
  primary monitor. When I make the setting in the nvidia settings tool
  it works as it should, but after a reboot the right monitor is primary
  again. It doesn't matter if I merge the xorg.conf or just overwrite
  it, neither works.
