Joao: I ran in to that too. I found that /etc/systemd/logind.conf was overriding xfce power manager. Add the following to /etc/systemd/logind.conf and then reboot:

HandlePowerKey=ignore
HandleSuspendKey=ignore
HandleHibernateKey=ignore
HandleLidSwitch=ignore

And then it should do what you want.

To work around the black screen, map some key combination to:

xrandr --auto

and you'll get your screen back.
