Bug Description

My display settings specify that the screen should be turned off after one hour (in "Brightness & Lock"). When I return to the machine after the screen has been turned off and press keys on the keyboard, the screen won't come back on. I have tried moving the mouse, clicking the mouse, unplugging and replugging the USB devices, and attaching another USB device. The OS is simply ignoring user input. The only way to get a screen is to unplug and replug the monitor. At that point, all the input devices work normally, and I see all my keystrokes in the login dialog. So the OS is failing to do the "turn on the screen now" thing when it is most obviously aware of user input.
