In the Device section where you specify the nvidia driver, add a line like 
this:

#Option IgnoreDisplayDevices CRT, TV

And tell it to ignore the devices you don't want to use.

 It is detecting 2 displays, but I only have one connected. How do I get it
 to use the other display, rather than the tv-0?

 Thanks,
