https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-workspaces-epoch/commit/2de366939bc4bd475c36ff805fb96272f207bb74 may fix this.

Reaopening this since it reoccured. This time it happened when I unplugged and replugged my second monitor. This also resulted in only one workspace being present on the replugged monitor instead of default two.

I have also run into this. Seems to effect my monitor running over DP when I turn it off and back on. Does not seem to effect my VGA monitor using DP adapter, or my monitor running over HDMI. Logging out and back in seems to fix it, until I turn my monitor off again.

In my case the monitor I didn't unplug lost workspace previews.

I assume this is the same issue. I've had it since first installing the alpha when it was released.

When I log in it is working, and stops working sometime later. ~~It might be after I've locked and unlocked the screen, but not sure about that.~~

It is always my main (larger) screen that they are blank, but I haven't checked if that is always showing up as zero. When I next log out and in I'll see.

Update: it is not related to locking and unlocking the screen because since https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-greeter/issues/126 I've disabled my lock screen shortcut and haven't been locking my screen (home machine) and it is still the case. And it has been screen 0 each time I've checked.

Hi @Kartonrealista. How would you characterize the sometimes-ness of this issue? For me it is always. If it is for you too maybe it would be worth updating the issue title?

I've just found something useful. Kill cosmic-workspaces and when it restarts when you press Super+w it is working again.

killall cosmic-workspaces

Update: I can confirm that it happened immediately when I've just turned it off and on after reading @Kartonrealista's update to the issue title, and killing it and having it restart worked around/fixed it. I'm pretty certain it does happen without turning the monitor off/disconnecting, I'll keep an eye on it to confirm.
