Description

### What Happened?

When my laptop wakes after the lid is closed, the DPI goes all wonky and everything is super tiny. I go to display settings and the DPI setting actually remains the same as it was before (2x). But if I switch scaling to 3x and then back to 2x(the default and current setting), the correct scale is shown.

Not sure if it's a coincidence or what, but the first display in the list (LoDPI or 1x) is the one that is used when I open my laptop , but only sometimes. Maybe there's some sort of implicit default to 1st option when my display settings can't be retrieved or are lost???? What's strange is the correct option is still shown as being selected even though the incorrect setting of 1x is used. It might also have something to do with the power settings.

### Steps to Reproduce

Close laptop and open

### Expected Behavior

Close and open should remain at the same resolution set in the display settings

### OS Version

6.x (Odin)

### Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

### Log Output

_No response_

### Hardware Info
