XFCE Power Manager is not inhibited under another desktop environment

I'm currently using XFPM under i3, on Arch Linux. I'm running it using "xfce4-session", with the power manager being in turn started by XFCE's session manager settings.
It seems to work correctly, but annoyingly, XFPM does not inhibit power management when playing video, etc.
Inhibition works correctly under a normal XFCE session, which has me confused.
I did some digging to try and find the problem, and checked /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc, but it seems to pretty much just set some environment variables and then run xfce4-session.

Here's the debug log from restarting xfce4-power-manager under i3:

The last few lines is me opening the notification tray menu to check if it is inhibited while I watch a video.

And here's the one from XFCE:

As you can from the end of this one, under XFCE XFPM successfully receives and handles inhibit requests.

I think perhaps the problem is $SESSION_MANAGER not being properly defined under i3, but I'm not sure why that would be.

(xfce4-power-manager:29051): xfce4-power-manager-WARNING **: Unable to connect to session manager : Failed to connect to the session manager: SESSION_MANAGER environment variable not defined

Does anyone know what I'm missing? I don't want to run i3 under XFCE because it seems to take significantly longer to load for some reason, and I don't think this is intentional behaviour regardless.

Thanks for reading, if you got through all that
