KDE screensaver, DPMS & Mplayer Issue.

Every time that I use Mplayer to see a video the KDE screensaver, DPMS doesn't work after Mplayer is closed. In order KDE screensaver, DPMS to work properly I have to restart X.

I have found this http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_MPlayer#KDE_Screensaver but it only works if someone changes the mplayer to gmplayer end executes gmplayer from the console. If I right click and Run... mplayer or gmplayer or double click to mplayer's icon the above "trick" doesn't work.

Does anyone faces the same problem? Is there a solution to this?

P.S. I don't wont to use Xscreensaver.
