Are you using WSL 1 or WSL 2?

Distro Version
Ubuntu 22.04
Other Software
IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2024.2.0.1 Docker 27.0.1
Repro Steps
I have a KVM connected to my home desktop and my work laptop. WSL is running on my work laptop with docker running the software I am developing and IntelliJ for dev work (via WSLg).
If I swap the KVM over to my desktop at any point while WSL is active then IDEA hangs and I am entirely unable to interact with it. If I kill it then it will not boot back up. If I close out IDEA prior to swapping the KVM then it just refuses to start.
I have only been able to resolve this by running
wsl --shutdown
in powershell then restarting the WSL instance entirely (including a full reboot of our docker cluster)note: this was not happening on my previous version, but I have been part of the trial group for our internal WSL usage at work, so I typically update to early access builds. this seems to have been introduced sometime between 2.3.11 and 1.3.14. going by release notes mentioning an update to WSLg I'm going to guess it was likely 2.3.14
Expected Behavior
WSLg should not hang and require a reboot after swapping KVM inputs. I suspect this is due to changing the monitor config (external ones disconnect and everything moves to laptop's built-in screen)
Actual Behavior
all WSLg applications refuse to start until I shutdown the guest instance and restart it
