Maybe what works for me would work for you to enable

I set all three power save options in desktop settings to 120 minutes.
I have tried that, up to 4000 4025 4050 minutes. Nominally 5 minutes
later it powers down, and an xset -q shows:
DPMS (Energy Star):
Standby: 450 Suspend: 600 Off: 900
DPMS is Enabled
Monitor is On
And theres not a thing I can do about it.
Something else to try depends on a config file in
which to put it,
either in /etc/X11/xorg.conf or a file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/,
included in Section "Monitor":
Option "DPMS" "off"
People using DE's (e.g. TDE) normally don't use cmdline utilities for
controlling X behavior, unless within startup scripts. The only one I
ever use in a startup script is xrandr. Xset has never been my friend.
I'm beginning to think of as s klepto shoplifter that deserves shooting
myself.
