Hi, I found the problem. As many problems are, this was stupidly simple.
In the VNC Server Properties, on the Inputs tag, I had to check the "Allow input events to affect the screen saver" box. Now it works. So now tell me, please, in view of the problems I had, why would one NOT want to check that box?
