I'm using a MacBook Pro (Late 2011) connected to two Thunderbolt displays. The displays are chained together, and one thunderboltThunderbolt connection is made to the MacBook Pro.

I prefer to have the left monitor function as the primary display (I want the dock to live on the left). Using the Display System Preference Pane, I can set this configuration with no issues.

Every morning, I connect the displays to the MacBook Pro and I disconnect every evening.

Some days, seemingly at random, the display configuration is changed and the right monitor has the dock and menu bar instead of the left.

Is there any way to ensure the display configuration remains the same?
