Sorry, typo in my previous comment:

* Make sure that all of the displays you want to use are active using xrandr.
* Delete xorg.conf if it exists.
* Edit ~/.config/monitors.xml **by hand** to achieve the display geometry you 
want. After this, don't bother with nvidia-settings, arandr, or the "Displays" 
dialog.
* Run dbus-send --session --print-reply --dest=org.gnome.SettingsDaemon 
/org/gnome/SettingsDaemon/XRANDR 
org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XRANDR_2.ApplyConfiguration int64:0 int64:0 to load 
the new monitor settings.
* Run the "Background" dialog and change the background image to a solid color.
