Try playing a DVD and see if the problem is back.

This is so weird! I went searching to find a clip to play so that I
could specifically try your suggestion. But when I played a clip, for
the first time in months, it's playing on both screens - without my
having done anything (that I'm aware of). I'll keep your suggestion so
that if it happens again, I can check out the status of Use Overlays.

Thanks.
