Description
So, I'm not sure if it just me doing something wrong, or an issue with webview2, but getDisplayMedia() simply doesn't show other screens other than the primary. The issue doesn't appear to be website-related, as I've tested discord and teams and both of them only displayed the primary screen. Regular Edge seems to be working fine.
I've tested against both runtimes (93.0.961.47x64 and 94.0.992.50.x64), and also both WebLoader 1.0.992.28 and 1.0.1018-prerelease

Research direction
Start by reproducing getDisplayMedia() in WebView2 with multiple monitors using the reported runtime and WebLoader versions, then compare the display choices with regular Edge and the tested Discord or Teams cases. Review the linked AB#36829977 work item; done requires confirming the scope of the secondary-monitor behavior and recording whether it is fixed or a documented limitation.
