Using the latest nvidia driver from kubuntu (2.80.13) the monitor resolution problem appears to be fixed. However this has had some odd side effects:
First time I installed the driver the mouse buttons and window maximisation appeared broken - instead of the maximise button giving vertical max / horizontal max or full screen max (as setup for right / middle / left click) windows would only horizontal maximise. Compositing was disbabled I reinstalled the nvidia drivers and this appeared to fix this problem. However, applications will only using mesa opengl and not the hardware accelerated opengl regardless...
