I am having issues with my second monitor keeping a consistent wallpaper and also the second monitor using what I want it to use without changing all of my Global Appearance settings. I can right-click on my primary monitor and change the wallpaper on the primary screen (right screen), but the secondary monitor (left screen) will not let me right click on it nor change the wallpaper for that screen in of itself. I can change the Global Theme from the Settings window, but after a few reboots, the second monitor sometimes stops displaying the wallpaper and only shows a dark screen, but my windows and applications are still visible.

How do you change the wallpaper for the second screen through the settings or an easy method?
