As written already:
Maybe it's better to disable systemd's power management for the Xfce
spin, till all that issues are fixed for sure.

Look into /etc/systemd/logind.conf, propably a working solution so far
for the Xfce Live CD. On installed systems, the user should be able to
decide what component is allowed to handle power management, it can go
well with a disabled systemd component in case of xfce4-power-manager,
or in doubt then vice-versa.

I wonder if that can be an upstream solution for the long run, and what
other distribution with usage of systemd as a replacement for init would
do about this issue here.
