Well, I tested Usher 1.1 with Intermission (the retail version
of ScreenPeace) and Raise with no problems.

I guess ScreenPeace uses one method to check for user activity
and Intermission uses another.

Not much Usher can do to fix that -- you could go buy Intermission
to replace ScreenPeace.  I'm kind of biased to that suggestion
since I helped write one of the screen savers in Intermission! :-)
