I'm currently attempting to change my wallpaper using the following line:

hyprctl hyprpaper reload ,$HOME/Pictures/Wallpapers/Dracula/arch_linux_text_purple.png

From my understanding, this should change the wallpaper on all connected monitors without the need to explicitly identify them.
This fails to change the wallpaper but prints out an "ok" status when the command is ran.

If I use instead,

hyprctl hyprpaper reload eDP-1, $HOME/Pictures/Wallpapers/Dracula/arch_linux_text_purple.png

The wallpaper is changed as expected.

Currently I launch hyprpaper on startup under uwsm with the following line from the wiki:

exec-once = systemctl --user enable --now hyprpaper.service

Please let me know if there is other debugging information that I could provide.

To add to this, I have a second computer with an identical configuration where this works. The only difference would be the monitors attached and obviously the computer itself.
