I'm guessing that the coordinates (0, 0) are on screen #1, in which
case you are getting what you asked for: a frame whose top-left corner
is on screen #1.

When using several monitors connected to the same machine, you
shouldn't assume that the top-left corner of the virtual screen has
the coordinates (0, 0).

What does the function display-monitor-attributes-list return?
