First, thanks for the VC definition.

Based on that bit of info above, wouldn't it make sense to use the:

Option "UseEDID" "FALSE"

and in the xorg.conf and manually input the needed settings?  I also would 
consider adding:

Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP" just to be sure.  I believe that is what I 
had to do a few years back when my nvidia card insisted on using only the 
analog output.
