Bryce, first off, sorry for mistyping your name ;)

I did a bit more testing, and I tried the classic/no effects login
again.  If I start undocked and dock, I do get the black
screen/responsive mouse pointer.  However, if I log in with classic/no
effects *and* do "xrandr --output LVDS1 --off" and then dock, one
monitor lights up with a real desktop (ie it seems to work).  The second
monitor was off, but I was able to get it to light back up by going to a
text console and back to X.  (I guess this is the second conflating bug
you mentioned).

I tried a standard unity login and did the "xrandr --output LVDS1 --off"
and I still ended up with a black but on monitor.
