I have similar problems with using my LG OLEDB6P 4K TV as a
monitor. The nouveau driver seems to be confused by the
EDID information. Using X it picks some resolution the
monitor can't even display (invalid signal on monitor),
using wayland I thought it worked, but when I examined
the details it picked a strange resolution that the monitor
could display, but wasn't the native 3840x2160.

When I switched to the nvidia binaries from rpmfusion
it sees 3840x2160 in EDID as the best resolution and
displays it no problem.

I have this feeling someone has been "improving" the
EDID detection in the open source video drivers.

I think this started back in fedora 28, but I only
recently dug into it in more detail and added info to
that first bugzilla.
