Set screensaver to appear across multiple external displays

I would like my screen saver to appear on all my monitors instead of just one. How can I make this happen? When using my setup the external displays work very well and as expected, except for this screensaver issue.


I have 2 external monitors and use 3 total (including the build in display) but when the screensaver turns on, it only appears on one monitor. Currently it appears on the built in display and the other two displays go dark. I have selected "show on all Spaces" in the screen saver settings page but this does not change any behavior. Even if I set the screen saver to appear on one of the external display spaces it still appears on the built in display.


Below are screen shots in case they are helpful. My Mac is up to date and running Sonoma 14.6.1.


Thank you for any help!
