thanks, the line 
 Option "ConnectedMonitor" "dfp, crt, tv"
did help eventually!

After I got a working single monitor display going and this line in the
Screen section, the nvidia-settings picked it up and configured it
(first with the screens in the wrong order, causing the login screen to
appear on the TV, but that's quite easily fixed)

After some cleaning up, it now looks like this:
