deleting xorg.conf and letting it use xinerama mode works around the problem.
Multihead is still broke.

# When using XQUEUE (only for SVR3 and SVR4, but not Solaris),

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and

If 'xrandr' does not show the second screen, there is nothing Plasma developers can do, as the configuration that is reported by xrandr is used by Plasma. Please ask at nvidia forums how to solve this issue. Thanks for the report Jonathan. I've tested this on my current setup but cannot reproduce. Can you please confirm if this issue still persists for you or if this bug report can now be resolved, thanks.
