Bug description:
I have a Wacom Intuos VT M tablet in a setting with two monitors
(laptop + external). Under an up-to-date Ubuntu Focal running X, if I
map the tablet to a single monitor it fails to map it more often than
not. A reliable way of getting failure is first connecting the tablet
via bluetooth and then via USB. The only way to revert to a correct
behavior is reseting X (ALT+F2 r). This is necessary even after
rebooting.
I've noticed that, when not working well, the problem is that Mutter
sends the mapping data to the "Wacom Intuos BT M Pad pad" device,
while it should be sending them to "Wacom Intuos BT M Pad stylus"
(this is what it does when it works well).
Under Wayland it works well (well, the tablet buttons don't work under
Wayland but this is unrelated).
PS I reported this bug against the Wacom X driver but was told it's
really related to mutter (https://github.com/linuxwacom/xf86-input-
wacom/issues/148).
