Do you have the above line starting in the background (with &) before
invoking awesome? I haven't been using xidle but xautolock, which has
worked fine for me for many years. Here's a .xinitrc from one machine:

xautolock -time 5 -locker "xlock -mode blank -lockdelay 15" &
ion3    # my wm. yours would be awesome
