Best guess by looking at this page:

Best guess, when you don't have the pin connected to anything, it "floats" at 5V because of its internal circuitry. Of course it could be any number of other reasons as well.

I would expect this type of thing to be real hit-and-miss even among chips that are otherwise identical.

If it works ...

I had this problem on an ArcadeVGA card once. It has to do with the way modern video cards detect the presence of a monitor.
