Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager
I have "Put display to sleep when inactive for" when on AC set to 30 minutes. However, even after 15 minutes of inactivation (I would have to check the exact time) my screen is put to sleep (while still being on AC).

Same issue with me on my laptop. Regardless of how I configure it, after 5 minutes of activity with the power plugged in or running on battery, the screen blanks.
I have tried killing gnome-power- manager, same issue. Re-launching after kill, same issue.
Screensaver is completely turned off, same issue.
This is becoming quite an annoyance, especially when watching films. I don't want to keep getting up every 5 minutes just to move the mouse to reactivate the display.
