OSX OS X switches resolution without monitor KVM

This is a interesting one. I use a KVM switch on my MAC proMac Pro and cinema displayCinema Display. While the display is on another computer, the MACMac switches to a different resolution (not seeing a monitor). I know it does while switching back to the macMac as my screen windows have changed places, to the lower half of my screen while the resolution is back to normal.

Does anybody know how to prevent this from happening. I've searched for fixed screenresolution"fixed screen resolution" etc. I've tried SwitchXres and Stay to no avail. (theseThese apps do not work if there is no screen).)

It would be great if I could set the screen resolution to only one setting (the max) and that there are no other alternatives where the Mac could choose from.
