Is it really necessary to specify the DISPLAY environment variable
within "Application Autostart" *.desktop file. :)

$HOME/.config/autostart/Screen-saver-off.desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.9.4
Type=Application
Name=Screen saver off
Comment=Set the screen saver off
Exec=xset s off
OnlyShowIn=XFCE;
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=false
Hidden=false

DPMS portion can be adjusted using the
xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/dpms-enabled
xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/dpms-enabled
-s true/false
