Bug Description

Ubuntu 13.04 64bit (actually latest VLC, latest Chrome)
Settings ( Power off display after 10 minutes without interaction, Sleep computer after 30 minutes without interaction)

Hi, in last days (after clean install of 13.04), I note, that when I am looking on Youtube videos, display turns off. And when I am looking on film in VLC media player, after it play to end (VLC window stay open, but not play), display never turn off and computer don't go sleep. I must wake up in the middle of the night and go to PC to manually turns it off.
