I have set up randr statically as per my attached xorg.conf.
When I open a video in Totem or vlc and make the video fullscreen, the
secondary screen shuts down and all windows and panels that are on it
get moved to the primary screen.

*Very* much sounds like the applications send some RandR requests.
Hm. We need a good protocol sniffer for that :-(

Maybe you want to try to set
Option "RandR" "off"
in the Serverflags sections. It should disable the protocol layer, *not*
the implementation. So you should have multiple screens, but 'xrandr -q'
should fail. I cannot verify ATM, though.

Just 2 cents
