I'm having trouble getting radeonhd to recognize that a monitor is plugged in. I suspect that the identification pin is not connected on the card's DVI socket (so it can never confirm the connection). I read somewhere that can happen and given the card is a rebranded, cheap knockoff, of a rebranded, cheap knockoff, it would surprise me very little.

Is there a way to bypass monitor detection and force output to DVI/CRT/S-video to activate?

Try Option "HPD" "swap" or "off" See man radeonhd for the HPD option. Also, you can specify per-output monitor sections and add an Option "Enable" there. Note that S-Video is not supported yet, and it's unlikely that it ever will.
