Xrandr not creating a new screen for my second monitor

Hello,
I'm using arch on my laptop, and have been trying to use a second monitor, but haven't been able to get it to work properly. xrandr sees it and I'm able to display to it, but it's treating it as an extension of the current screen, and i want it to rather treat it as it's own screen with it's own workspace. I'm using X11, Xmonad is my window manager.

what i have tried to make it work:
xrandr --output eDP-1 --primary --auto
xranrd --output DP-1 --right-of eDP-1 --auto

This makes it display to the right, but it's not working as desired with integration in X, having a sepereate screen session.
