I think you will only get TV/recordings displayed on whichever output device is configured as the primary device. I had the same situation with one of my setups when I had TV-out and a monitor connected simultaneously to an ATI Radeon 9000. You can configure the TV as the primary head (which should give you output on the TV for LiveTV and recordings) and the monitor would not have the video. Completely disconnecting the monitor enables the video driver to detect the connected TV and use that as the primary device with no other configuring that I remember (other than TV standard to use etc).
