Source monitor not following settings in v17

Hello All,
I am finding that sometimes when on the edit page, if I load a sequence into the source monitor, the video output doesn't respect the video output settings.
For example, I am working in a UHD timeline but have my scaling and video output set to HD. When I load a sequence into the source monitor my video output shows a very zoomed in version of the image. when that same sequence is loaded in the default record side the sizing is respected.
I often have a sequence loaded in both the source and record monitor and gang them together but with the sizing wrong on one of them my method is a bust.
Is this a new setting?
Thank you,

The Source Monitor will always show you the full, native clip. No scaling, no cropping, etc. So a UHD clip showing only an HD portion of that clip...what you see makes sense.

It sounds like you need to check all your Image Scaling and Video Monitoring options.

I am 100% positive this is a new behavior in v17.
In version 16 if you were working in a UHD timeline but had the video output set to HD and the output scaling set to HD as well, when you loaded a UHD sequence into the source monitor it would scale the video out to HD as well.
This is definitely a bummer for matching when conforming.

I just tested both versions. Definitely a change in Resolve 17.2.2

Thanks for confirming I am not crazy! Now to discuss if this was intentional, a bug or a setting that can be toggled. Regardless, this is no good for conforming editors. I am constantly moving one cut into the next. I need to be able to visually match between my sequences.
