I edited my starup script to set the DISPLAY variable.

[myth at mythtv ~]$ cat .mythtv/myth-load
#!/bin/bash

# Only do this stuff if we're on the main display
# (i.e., don't do this in a vnc session)


if [ `echo $DISPLAY | grep -c ":0"` -ge 1 ]
then
    DISPLAY=:0.1 # set to secont display
    # Launch irexec for myth power button stop/start
    irexec &
    # Launch myth frontend
    mythfrontend &
    # Disable dynamic power management (screen blanking)
    #/usr/bin/xset -dpms
    # Disable screen saver
    /usr/bin/xset s off
    # Start MythTranscode Deamon
    mtd &
fi
exit
[myth at mythtv
