If I set video=HDMI-A-1:d nothing comes out the DVI port and if I set HDMI-A-3:d nothing comes out the HDMI port. This is rather confusing.

The machine is unresponsive for 2-3 seconds when this happens. Sure, specifying the EDID as firmware is a work around, but it's a work around that isn't working as intended on this hardware, for whatever reason. Seems like someone would be interested in fixing it? I've got a machine I could provide some access to? Mark
