I have the "virtual displays only" setting turned on by default, but it only seems to apply when I view the additional settings, although I may be incorrect about this. I have it set to change the resolution to match the PC the viewer is installed on, whereas the remote PC's native display resolution is much higher, and there are two screens (the viewer has one).
What I can say for certain is that when I get it to apply to the remote machine, it does not apply to everything.
For example, I force it to be on, and then connect up to log in. It is now applying to the login screen.
Once I log in, the virtual display setting is no longer applying as it is back to native display settings.
If I disconnect and then reconnect, the virtual screen applies to the main desktop and I can work.
Once I log out, it is back to native display settings again, and I have to disconnect and then reconnect to get it to apply the virtual display settings once more.

This require some testing, this part is complex.

It looks like this might only happen if I have an active session that I am trying to connect to. I usually use RDC, but sometimes its virtual display driver stops working, so I need to use the console to access the session. I can then choose programs and logout, making RDC work again.
This isn't the only thing I use Ultra VNC for though. There are several other reasons why I periodically need access to the console.
