Wallpaper - changes to "Sequoia Sunrise" when opening

[PlayMoneyPro]

Ever since I moved to OS 15, the wallpaper will change to Sequoia Sunrise no matter what I do. I've tried all the tricks - rebooting, just using a basic, non dynamic wallpaper, etc. Nothing works. Whenever I reboot, or even just wake my MacBook Pro up, it will revert to that wallpaper.

As anybody found a fix to this?

me too (15.2 on Mac Studio/ASD). everything worked normally (use my own pic from Photos Library). now every morning on startup the pic goes back to Sequoia Sunrise.

very annoying—especially since this didn't happen in 15.1

I opened FB13282770 in October of 2023 for a very similar issue. I use (er, used) a folder in the Photo's App to randomly cycle through my desktop wallpaper, but when I select the Random checkbox, it changes to the Default Sequoia Wallpaper. If I reboot or log out/in, it changes to the Default Sequoia Wallpaper. FWIW, I am able to use a Finder folder for this, just not a Photos app folder. And the Feedback does say "More than 10" people have reported it, too. What's worse is that it seems like any photo I choose from the Photos app changes back to the default. I've resorted to only using photos from a folder in the Finder app instead.

If you do file any Feedback with Apple, I would appreciate it if you referenced mine, too. Seems as though others are having "odd" or similar issues that all might be related to something else that they just can't figure out.

I thought MAYBE it was a new file format requirement...

This morning I exported my 'TIFF file wallpaper pic' (used prior to 15.2 with no issue) into a PDF, PNG, and JPG —ALL versions of file revert to 'Sequoia Sunrise' after a restart.

today, it opened correctly?? (Last night, I changed the Wallpaper setting from "Fill Screen" to "Stretch to Fill Screen")

I think maybe the issue may present itself when the selected image is not the same resolution size as the monitor setting
