Can you forward the output from /sys/class/graphics/fb0/modes and
/sys/class/graphics/fb0/mode from each of these displays?

It's possible that we're blocking some of the modes because they
don't support audio:
	https://github.com/boundarydevices/linux-imx6/commit/104d4ebfcad4021ed982ec0f436d56c3d0f44068

We added a driver parameter to the mxc_hdmi driver to force
the use of CEA modes. You can override it with this kernel
command-line parameter.
	mxc_hdmi.only_cea=0

If you're running a recent U-Boot, you can also get a list
of supported modes from your monitor using these two
commands:
	U-Boot > i2c dev 1
	U-Boot > i2c edid

Please advise,


Eric
