I'd say very hardly. Maybe if you let the graphics card to re-read monitor
properties. When graphics card doesn't know them, it may not let you to
switch the resolution.
Does that happen anytime you are connected to the switch (even if you booted
our laptop being connected there and switched to monitor?). In such case you
can either force the resolution, or throw off the switch...
