Power On timer only triggers if Power Off shutdown the system. If you power down yourself, the timer is not set. I don't have a Sparc system to poke around at anymore, but look at what the shutdown/poweroff scripts do. There is a line in there to add the RTC alarm, you could mimic that to trigger custom power on timers.
