A friend of mine has the problem too. He first used his monitor over VGA and scaled it up. Then got a new graphic card and connected it through HDMI. Even when the scale factor was set to 1, the desktop was too big, so that some buttons like the "power cog" wasn't visible at all.
We reconnected the monitor through VGA and to our surprise, the scale factor wasn't 1 as expected, but higher. After resetting the scale factor to 1 and switching again to HDMI the scale factor was correct and all the display widgets visible.

He is now affected by this bug. The settings show scale factor 1 but the
font is huge.

Title:
  desktop ui scale is huge even though the setting is set to a scale of
  1

Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I just updated and restarted the laptop. When it started, the gtk
  widgets are all huge. The unity shell is not scaled. I opened up the
  Display settings to find a new scale widget, which is currently set to
  1. Lowering it did not change anything. This is all experienced on a
  Macbook Pro Retina 11,1.
