Bug Description

[Impact]

The panel shadow is lost on the other screen.

[Test Case]

2. open dash or HUD on the main monitor with super (or alt) key
3. note on the other screen

What happens:
the panel shadow is lost on the other screen.

What should happen:
the display without dash/HUD should stay unchanged

see the attached screenshot.

[Regression Potential]

Buttons are now gone from the second monitor (not this bug but related) but still no shadow. Also affects landscape setup too.
