Unfortunately, from what I can see, it's going to be tricky to implement what you're wanting to do on the GSmapSearchControl because of the fact that it switches between two different maps when doing searches and such. Additionally, you will want to consider that v2 of the GMaps JS API has been deprecated, so it's only a matter of time before the GSMapSearchControl ceases to function. If at all possible (I don't know the options ESRI offers), I would suggest migrating to GMaps JS API v3. You can then utilize my jGoogleBar which was designed for GMaps v3 and offers the search functionality of the GoogleBar without the ads. And you won't have to worry about the maps switching out on you.
Alternatively, you could add your custom layer(s) to both of the control's maps so that, regardless of which one is being displayed, your layer(s) will be present. Jeremy R.
