        So as stated before you most probably need to change wayland-1 to wayland-0 in your scripts.
        Give it a try.
        Furthermore the .lock file may cause a problem, but I guess this will show in your error log.
        And temporarily change the times in your cronjob to speed things up a bit.
        Waiting till ten and midnight is not really necessary :-)

          @evroom *.lock should not cause an issue. I have same on my system and no issues with it. I agree with the wayland-1 change to wayland-0.

            should it be modified in this way?

            output HDMI-A-1 --on
            Into
            output HDMI-A-0 --on

              No, like this:

              export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0

              In both scripts.

                      You only had to change the 1 into a 0.
                      Not to move the lines around, especially not the ones with export.

                      #!/bin/bash
                      export WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
                      export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=/run/user/1000
                      wir-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on
                      

                      But you are slowly getting there :-)
