XBMC Overriding Metamodes Options in X11 config

I can't seem to find another forum post which describes my problem and I have run out of trouble shooting ideas. Whenever I launch xbmc it seems to override the metamode options I have defined in my xorg.conf. Using the xorg.conf below I can use gnome 3 without any overscan issues, but when I launch xbmc the screen goes black and comes back with the edges cut off. Even after I exit xbmc still having the same issues until I restart gdm. I have a gt210 with using the nvidia packages for my drivers and here is xorg.conf. Has anyone seen this issue before or notice something missing in my xorg.conf?

[xbmc@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
