Location: outside any screen error although window well within the screen

I am repeatedly getting Location: outside any screen error although the location in question well within the screen.

To test what exactly is happening, i checked whether sikuli detected my extra monitor and what it figures its bounds to be:-
print(getNumberScreens())
print(Screen(1).getBounds())

Got the following output:-
2 # IDE detects 2 monitors - one laptop and one external - which is correct
java.awt.Rectangle[x=-271,y=-1080,width=1920,height=1080] #IDE detects the dimensions of my external monitor correctly

However, when i try make it perform an action in the region where i was having this trouble with the following line:-
l = Location(1496,705)
hover(l)

It throws the error - [error] Location: outside any screen (1496, 705) - subsequent actions might not work as expected

Why is it finding location (1496, 705) outside any screen? It is well within the bounds of the S1 that it detected in the previous line.
