On my system, it looks like xlock takes its system default settings from 
/usr/X11/lib/X11/app-defaults/XLock.  You should be able to override 
those in ~/.Xdefaults.

e.g.,

XLock.mode: blank
XLock.vtlock: off (allows VT switching when xlock is activated)
XLock.dpmsstandby: (no. of seconds)
XLock.dpmssuspend: (no. of seconds)
XLock.dpmsoff: (no. of seconds)
