[SOLVED] Additional Xwayland Instance No Longer Spawning Full-screen

I update my system once a week.

Before this week's update,

Xwayland :5 & DISPLAY=:5 XDG_SESSION_TYPE= /usr/bin/barrier

would spawn a full-screen (4k) Xwayland instance with barrier in it.

Now, instead of a full-screen instance, it spawns a window that's 640px x 480 px in size.

Does anybody know if the defaults have changed and/or if there's an option to make Xwayland take over the entire screen?

//EDIT
Manually setting the -geometry flag solved my issue. Not sure why it no longer defaults to full-screen without it.
