Krfb Desktop Sharing - Can't view what's on external monitor

Hello,

I'm running KDE Neon 5.11 with Krfb installed and enabled. My PC is a HP Pavilion DV7 laptop with an external monitor connected via the HDMI port. The problem I'm having is that when I connect to my PC from another device, whether it be VNC Viewer on my Android phone or KRDC on my other KDE Neon laptop, it doesn't show what's on the external monitor, only what's on the main one. I can't find any settings in Krfb or my viewers related to external monitors. I'd like to keep using Krfb as opposed to installing something else, but I'll switch if that's the only option.

Thanks!

My setup connects, and I can move the mouse, but the desktop image is "static", that is it does not refresh. No one seems to have posted a fix for that, and many of the KRDC posts here have gone unanswered. Discouraging.

Which one is the host (KRDC) and which one is the client (Krfb)? Are you seeing any desktop image of the Krfb client in KRDC?
