perhaps you have something else messing with the dpms values. here it alwasy
sets up on boot/reboot and enable presentation mode then disable again and
everything is set correctly (dpms enabled, standby/suspend/off times are
correct, screensaver is on with correct timeout). i can't reproduce your issues
here with e from git (and efl too).
