resolution set for your frontend, which is a lower resolution than your
monitor.

I have been struggling for a few weeks to get my NVIDIA TV-OUT working, and
finally did so at the weekend (that's a whole different story of stupidity
and RTFM).

I've set the TV picture to be a section of the picture the normal
monitor-out sees (specifically, the upper-left portion).  The TV 'monitor'
is set at 640x480, and I've set the FE to run at that resolution.

With the FE running, all I see on my TV is Myth, but what I see on the
monitor is exactly what you describe - Myth FE runs in the upper left corner
of the screen, with the KDE desktop behind it.  It really does sound like
something as simple as the FE resolution (isn't it always?)!

Hope this is of some help, and good luck!
