I have an idea for a workaround: in crontab add a new line "0 * * * * DISPLAY=:0.0 xset +dpms". You can see that when you have this problem, xset q shows that dpms is disabled, and after running xset +dpms, xset q shows that dpms is enabled. Hopefully some people may find this workaround handy. I tested this workaround on 9.04.
