light-locker and power-manager in xfce

Hi everyone,
I have my laptop with archlinux and xfce.
I see that the xfce4-power-manager settings does not work.
For example, i install light-locker and the screen does not turn off after the time i set.
With xscreensaver work but i don't like the spartan lock screen of xscreensaver.
What should i do?

Thanks!

You may need to run the light-locker before xfce4-power-manager

EDIT: i found that light-locker works, but xfce-power-manager not override the dpms settings!
so xfce-power-manager not lock the screen, i need to set it with commands like
xset
