4 monitor layout resets 1 monitor on resume

Hi,

New to Workstation, I am currently evaluating it using a VM I have from VirtualBox. This is a Windows 7 host with a Windows 7 guest. The host has 4 monitors. I set up the VM to use the the host display settings. I can get the guest running and using all 4 monitors in full screen mode. There are 8 layouts for fullscreen mode, layout 8 is the one that uses all 4 monitors. 

Where I run into problems is if I suspend and restart the guest. It will restart in full screen mode as expected. However, it will use "layout 1" which uses just the lower left monitor, instead of layout 8 which is what I was using when the Guest was suspended. I can switch to layout 8, but all the windows on my guest have been relocated to the lower left monitor.

Is there a way to get layout 8 to be the default in fullscreen mode? I have searched and searched and can't find anything on it.

Thank,

Stan
