Not sure either.

BTW, you didn't set any zoom in Chromium settings? (it's still at 100%)

I don't know if it could handle mixed DPI correctly (Xsettings are per screen but
most of the code is for the whole X server). What it does handle
correctly is when DPI is changing entirely.

I don't use a DE, so in my case, I mess with Xsettings for it to
advertise another DPI settings and I tell xrandr to change the X server
one. Dunno what XFCE would do automatically (all the more if you changed
the default settings for Xft/DPI).

Maybe try with Gnome to see if it does things differently.
