Bug Description

I did a fresh install of Ubuntu-22.04 two weeks ago. I don't think the automatic lock on idle feature has worked the entire time (and I've been patching all the time when available). If I manually lock the screen it works - but if I don't, I can go to bed and the next day it's still unlocked. syslog doesn't show any obvious gnome-screensaver error, so I wonder if this is actually a Wayland issue - ie it isn't telling gnome-screensaver about inactivity triggers? I dunno - just guessing.
