That looks somewhat similar to the problem I described at: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/d5871aedea82d915/d567fecbfda6235f Seems as if HTC are applying some very aggressive power saving when the screen is turned off. Unfortunately, I do not yet have a solution (there must be one [most likely undocumented] as the native phone application is not affected).
