I get a similar issue on my 14in M4 Max Macbook Pro running Sequoia 15.4.1. The external monitor is from LG. If I use full screen on the Macbook display, the menu bar goes to the middle right of my external monitor. I can replicate this every time I use full screen on my Macbook display.

@jfurds Yes, I was able to replicate your method. Any app on my MacBook can be used; simply make it full screen, and the menu bar will appear on the external monitor.

Same, this issue has been irritating me for quite a while now, hope it is fixed soon. For me if I stream the external display to a virtual screen and juggle around the arrangements, it sometimes temporarily fixes it.
