Bug description

Lock screen doesn't display properly (black screen with graphical glitches) when my main display (landscape) is set to 125% scaling, with my secondary (vertical) display is set to 100% scaling.

Steps to reproduce

Have main display scaling set to 125% and secondary display to 100%. Click on Lock screen button in the menu.
Here's a link to video showing my issue: Lock screen bug

Expected behavior

Lock screen displaying properly.

Additional information

The bug doesn't seem to appear when I set scaling to 150% on my main display and 100% on my secondary display. Also, occasionally when I unlock my screen (no matter if with 125% or 150% scaling) my wallpaper is zoomed in, but I've made a comment about this in linuxmint/cinnamon#12009. My main display is Samsung 29" 3840x2160 (16:9) in landscape. My secondary monitor is NEC 22" 1680x1050 (16:10) in vertical mode.
