Only shows one screen with ubuntu-frame side_by_side config #23

I have set up ubuntu-frame for a dual-monitor output following the guide here

When I connect my VNC client I can only see the output from one of the displays. Is there some kind of config required in ubuntu-frame-vnc to enable either choosing of the screen to share or make a virtual screen combining both?

Internally, Frame-VNC uses wayvnc, which has a -o option to specify the output.

However, the ubuntu-frame-vnc snap currently doesn't expose this as a configuration option.

There's also wayvncctl that you can use to switch the output live. Again, not exposed as we don't want to bind ourselves to wayvnc:

$ snap run --shell ubuntu-frame-vnc -c \$SNAP/usr/local/bin/wayvncctl --help
