I added a 750 TI to my computer with a 1070, set <use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus>, and after a few tasks both GPUs did a task concurrently. However, afterwards, only dev 0 (1070) is doing any work, and there are GPU tasks ready to start.
How do I fix this?

Elevator Startups,

Your startup log shows that your second gpu is ignored by config. You probably need to add the <use_all_gpus>1</use_all_gpus> statement to your cc_config.xml file.

As I recall the default cc_config.xml is pretty useless. I copied this one from a long time ago and I believe it has every command there is. I just customize the ones I know for sure and leave the others alone:
