Don't bother.  The KVMs have nothing to do with the signal levels -
they just perform electronic switching.  And some mechanical have
make before break - so you can get two signals at one A BAD THING -
while others have break before make - so one is totally
disconnected before the other is connected.

The switch will not add or subtract.
