Historically, disabling KMS is a required component of NVidia driver installation. Have you attempted NVidia installation on 15.1?
Ya, that is where this all started.
IMO the best next move is to eradicate all remnants of NVidia driver installation. As I've never installed NVidia drivers, I'm not privy to the exact procedure, which AFAIK is detailed in those drivers' installation instructions. Historically, blacklisting nouveau and tampering with content in /lib/ is part of their installation process, and must be reversed before any FOSS KMS X configuration (nouveau DDX or modesetting DDX) can work. Once FOSS is working as expected consideration of trying again with NVidia's tainting can be made.
This has been done. I actually did a fresh 15.1 install on a test disk. No NVIDIA software ever touched that install. It is pure FOSS and I have to use nomodeset to get a GUI. Both monitors contain the same thing. Mouse will NOT move between the 2 monitors.
