Public bug reported:
After a period of time, my displays go to sleep as they should. However,
I often come back to find that the displays are awake, the mouse pointer
is on a screen, but the screens are otherwise black. They're in this
weird "awake but not fully on" mode. At that point, they will not go
back to sleep as they should unless I fully awake them and let them go
back to sleep.
I don't know exactly what triggers the "half awake" but I suspect it's a
notification. The displays shouldn't turn on without a user action. It
wastes power and is clearly broken. I've attached a photo for an
example.
