In fact, the command is run by the shell, which expands [s] to s.

So what is grepped for is xscreensaver. But in ps output the run command is
[s]creensaver which is not matched by the grep.

 Why don't you just enclose the first character of
> each process name by square brackets?

That would do the trick too
