This also occurs with boxee (http://www.boxee.tv), which seems to make
some sense - boxee shuts the screen off itself. Again, running xset
dpms force off works around the problem.

I discovered that DPMS fails when I boot an instance of android emulator, which
is a 32bit app in my 64bit ubuntu.
After clicking start-launch on the emulator, g-p-m starts to print the error
when the screen timeout occurs, and even after exiting from the emulator this
problem remains.
