After setting TwinView and applying successfully, reboot results in return to single screen mode.

Running sudo nvidia settings from console returns:

 ERROR: Invalid display device CRT-1 specified on line 21 of configuration file
       '/home/user/.nvidia-settings-rc' (the currently enabled display
       devices are DFP-0 on Computer:0.0).

 ERROR: The attribute 'XVideoSyncToDisplay' specified on line 53 of
       configuration file '/home/user/.nvidia-settings-rc' cannot be
       assigned the value of CRT-1 (the currently enabled display devices are
       DFP-0 on Computer:0.0).

Nvidia-settings then launches successfully and TwinView can be set again, but Save to X Configuration File still results in crash. Apply and Close work successfully but settings do not persist over a reboot.
