Given 2 Monitors each showing a slideshow as a background images come in random order on both monitors. Unfortunately both monitors will always display the same image if the same source is given for the slideshow on both monitors. it seems that the random seed is the same for both backgrounds.

Workaround: You can get different images on both monitors by simply adding the image source twice on one of them.
