I don't use lock screen. But I do have the case where my monitors won't go in to
blank.
When this happens I click on the "Status and Notifications" triangle in my
systray and
then select "Battery and Brightness" and it tells me what application is
preventing the
blank. For me it is normally Chrome and it due to an open WebRTC connection. Finding
and
killing the open tab is one way to clear it. But sometimes I have to close Chrome and
restart.
I've search, in vain, for a way to ignore open WebRTC as a reason for keeping the
screens
active. :-(
Hi
Thanks, but I'm not seeing any applications listed in "Battery and
Brightness".
Also, I notice this behaviour (screen comes out of power save
immediately) on all the systems I manage and I'm pretty sure that not
everyone has a WebRTC conenction open.
This started happening a few weeks ago, so presumably it was some update
that caused it.
