You're right. 'xfce4-display-settings' saves the settings in the
$HOME/.config/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/displays.xml

Feel free to paste the content of the 'lightdm.log' at http://fpaste.org
so it can be studied.
If you do, one for the "RandR" round, and one for the script of yours.
One copy you can send to the Vogons.
