The screen goes black instead of turnin off

I have my screen set up to switch off after X minutes, and it is working fine, except it does not really shut downs. It just goes black, but the backlight is still working, while what I want is the result I get when I run

sleep 2 && xset dpms force off

I am using XFCE, xscreensaver and nvidia drivers.
