It is typical for KVM switches to cache the EDID.  Sometimes they do it wrong.  I \
would have suggested that, had you not figured it out.  If anyone else should have \
this in the future, experimenting without the KVM in the circuit would be something \
to try first.  This also comes up a lot with digital TV setups. \
