iMac screen saver launches dark and then screen turns to black

My Screen Saver launches as though in Dark Mode and then in a minute goes to black. If I launch the Screen Saver from a Hot Corner, it displays properly. Any ideas for a fix? I tried unchecking requiring password to wake from sleep, and also unchecking Prevent computer from sleeping. Neither works.

iMac 27", macOS 10.15
