That's similar to what I get when I use my notebook with the intel driver. I
plug a projector, KDE offers me to set resolutions, I set both LCD and
projector to 1024×768, and on the LCD, I get 1024×768 (cloned from the
projector) zoomed to 1200×800 and letterboxed left and right to the native
1280×800.

Your problem there is nvidia. Its support for XRandR is broken and
incomplete. Try Nouveau.
