I am confirming that booting with DVI-D cable attached fails as well with nouveau. Plymouth splash stays on the screen and X does not seem to be able to take over the screens.
02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G86 [GeForce 8400M G] (rev a1)
If splash is removed from commandline then X is able to start with two outputs (LVDS/DVI-D)
I am attaching my Xorg log files in case it might be helpful to diagnose that.
