When it's enabled/disabled, is there a ~/.config/autostart/xfce4-screensaver.desktop file with Hidden=true ? supposedly, that's what should "prevent" it to start, ie this desktop file "overrides" /etc/xdg/autostart/xfce4-screensaver.desktop next interesting thing would be to put XFSM_VERBOSE=1 in your .xsession and figure out what starts the screensaver (debug log ends up in ~/.xfce4-session.verbose-log) i still think there's some kind of conflicting behaviour with xflock4 .. i'll eventually look at that someday.
