drivers - Ubuntu doesn't recognize 2nd and 3rd HDMI monitors connected to NVIDIA GTX 1060

I have 3 HDMI monitors connected to a desktop running Ubuntu 16.10 with GNOME. One is through the integrated graphics card and is working properly. The other two are connected to the GTX 1060 and are not showing up anywhere.



I have tried nvidia-378, nvidia-375, and nvidia-370, but all fail to detect the two HDMI monitors connected to the graphics card.



Is there a way I can help the nvidia driver along by telling it where to look for the monitors?
