Ahh... I found out where the problem was finally.

I am using KPowersave and it completely overrules the KControl power save 
settings. (There could have been some kind of hint about this somewhere :) )

Solution is simple. Switch to presentation profile in the kpowersave applet.

Thanks for all your help guys. You really worked your butts off on this
