I'm sure I remember seeing something about this, but I can't remember where 
(maybe ./configure?)  Well, anyway, you should be able to run "xset dpms 
force off" on a separate console to manually set your monitor to powersave 
while mplayer is running until you can find a proper solution.

Cheers,
Adam.
