Comment:

 The current settings work fine for the vast majority of users.  The once-
 per-minute screensaver poke will work for any user with a screensaver
 timeout of 2 minutes or higher, and decreasing the poke interval to 25sec
 would be extra work for the system to do during playback--where
 performance is critical--and would only be helpful for users who have
 screensavers set with a 1-minute timeout.  Therefore, users who wish to
 run with a 1-minute screensaver timeout can modify the code that pokes the
 screensaver manually (or just settle for a 2-minute screensaver timeout).

 In the future, I plan to add support for xdg-screensaver, which will take
 a very different approach to screensaver disabling/enabling, and won't be
 affected by the screensaver timeout.
