Thank you for your bug report, are you really using gnome-screensaver or are you using unity and its standard lock screen?

I am using unity.
I don't know what specific program is responsible for turning the screen off.
`ps` seems to indicate that `gnome-screensaver` is not running, although the package is installed.
I just uninstalled the package and the behavior did not change.
I guess this is a bug in unity then.
