Well, I'm not certainly sure (probably Julien will be the best person
to explain this), but most probably Awesome somehow gets info about
monitor configuration from X server.
When you use one graphics card everything is pretty OK, because RandR
can handle it just perfect.
Unfortunately it all goes wrong when you connect second card, because
RandR can't properly configure it, and X server is somehow confused.
