I can confirm this bug with debian unstable/sid.
The first time I run "xscreensaver-command -deactivate" it works
properly. Subsequent times, I get
xscreensaver-command: no response to command.
restarting xscreensaver does not reset this. It appears that I have to
reboot or restart X to have "xscreensaver-command -deactivate" work one
more time.
-activate and other commands works fine.
I ran the daemon in verbose mode (xscreensaver -v) and then looked at
what happens when I run "xscreensaver-command -deactivate"
I get:
xscreensaver: 17:21:01: ClientMessage DEACTIVATE received while
inactive: resetting idle timer.
xscreensaver: 17:21:06: de-race completed.
xscreensaver: 17:51:21: blanking screen at Sat Jun 28 17:51:21 2008.
xscreensaver: 17:51:21: 0: grabbing keyboard on 0x10e... GrabSuccess.

xscreensaver: 17:56:24: fading done.
xscreensaver: 17:58:21: unblanking screen at Sat Jun 28 17:58:21 2008.
xscreensaver: 17:58:21: 0: ungrabbing mouse (was 0x10e).
xscreensaver: 17:58:21: 0: ungrabbing keyboard (was 0x10e).
xscreensaver: 17:58:21: starting de-race timer (10 seconds.)
xscreensaver: 17:58:21: awaiting idleness.
xscreensaver: 17:58:31: de-race completed.
or sometimes just:
xscreensaver: 18:10:35: ClientMessage DEACTIVATE received while
inactive: resetting idle timer.
In both cases after ~10s, I get a :no response to command" reply to the
-deactivate command.
