Hopefully someone can help out here, my new 2012 Mac Mini was running fine without any problems, then when I installed the 10.8.2 update (not the original update that got pulled from the Apple site but the newer version) with the EFI Mac Mini firmware update my monitor won't go to sleep anymore. It used to do this without any problems, but since the update it goes to the screensaver without any problems, but when the time comes for the monitor to go into sleep mode the screensaver just stays frozen on the screen.

I typed pmset -g assertions into Terminal and got this response:
