I doubt this is your issue, but just in case... Does it only fail to do the "Off" part or is it not doing any of the three?
It wasn't doing anything at all.The funny thing though, after I did this poking around, such as running "xset dpms…" etc, an hour later I came back and the monitor was powered down. Since then, all DPMS functionality was, once again, operating normally.
Originally even a reboot made no difference – that is DPMS still wasn't working after a reboot. But, manual poking with xset seems to have kicked something back into gear.
