1. The specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem.

-I tried to set the screen to lock at a specific interval and it doesn't lock
Settings-> Privacy-> Screen Lock -> Automatic Screen Lock -> Enabled
Settings-> Privacy-> Screen Lock -> Automatic Screen Lock -> 30 seconds

-The screen doesn't go blank at all (option found under)
Settings-> Privacy-> Screen Lock -> Blank screen Delay -> 1 minute

2. The behavior you expected.
It should lock the screen and have the screen go blank but it doesn't

3. The behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).
Nothing happens the screen doesn't lock or goes blank.

Please also ensure that you include the release and flavour of Ubuntu that you are using.
I upgraded from 18.04 to 20.04.1 using the sotware updater GUI
rt@sys76:~$ uname -a
Linux sys76 5.4.0-48-generic #52-Ubuntu SMP Thu Sep 10 10:58:49 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

About me including the file-manager being nemo I was just trying to include everything I could think of to help out.
