Set up Eve client to play full screen on monitor 2, using the setup window. Soon as you click on monitor 1, the Eve Client is minimized. I've not tested if the opposite is true, will tonight.

Are you trying to run one or both sessions full screen? If so change them both to window mode and it should fix it.

Trying to run on single monitor. Switch to full screen windowed mode and that works around the regression. Used to play full screen (montior 2 only) as I have spreadsheets on monitor 1.

Also, when the client is configured to start on monitor 2 (in ESC window, graphics tab), it still starts on monitor 1. Another regression.
