As Andrew suggested, try "sleep 2; xset dpms force off".  It's been my
experience that computers are too fast, and the screensaver kicks in
before I have a chance to take my finger off the Enter key.  Then when I
do manage to release the key about 1/10 second later, the KeyUp event
disables the screensaver.
