I don't use ATI but I think I read here a while back that ATI drivers have to be compatible with certain versions of xorg. You may want to see if you can use a newer version of the ATI drivers.
You can look at the ebuild to see what exact versions. From what i read, it looks like you may need the 10 series instead of the 9 series. Then again, it is sometimes backwards from what I am thinking. May be worth testing anyway.
