I should've also included my ServerLayout and Monitor0 configuration for
completeness:

```
Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "Layout0"
    Screen      0  "Screen0"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier     "Monitor0"
    VendorName     "SONY"
    ModelName      "SONY STR-DG820"
    HorizSync       15.0 - 58.0
    VertRefresh     56.0 - 75.0
EndSection
```
