Instead of deactivating DPMS, try removing these xset commands from
your startup script and add these lines to your xorg.conf:

Activate DPMS in your "Monitor" section:
    Option         "DPMS"

Add the following "ServerFlags"-section if you don't already have one
(in that case just copy-paste the four lines):
Section "ServerFlags"
    Option          "BlankTime"     "0"
    Option          "StandbyTime"   "0"
    Option          "SuspendTime"   "0"
    Option          "OffTime"       "0"
EndSection

I don't know if it will help in your case, but it's worth a try :)
