XBMC doesn't boot completely without (HDMI) TV turned on. (to play music without tv)

What you need to do is setup xorg with a manual loaded EDID.

I had to do this for my old pioneer receiver as it wouldn't pass this information to the TV properly. But with the new receiver it does, it allows me to turn off the TV and listen to music, and also keeps XBMC running in the background with the TV/receiver off.

Here's an excellent post which will help you setup a manually loaded EDID:
