--- Comment #3 from Jan Rathmann <jan.rathm...@gmx.de> ---
The reported issue that on KDE audio playback/playing music doesn't inhibit
suspend still exists for me. For video playback this seems to work fine, but
not for audio only.

I have tested this with this media players on my system (Kubuntu 19.10 with
Backports PPA): Audacious, Cantata, VLC, SMPlayer, mpv Media Player. None of
the first four were able to inhibit suspend while playing music. mpv Media
Player was the only exeption - maybe because it seems to treat the use case
"playing audio file" the same as "playing video" (it also inhibited the monitor
from turning off, which makes not much sense when the file played contains no
video).

I did also a short test under Gnome (Ubuntu 19.10, with Audacious as audio 
player). Here it worked fine - when playing audio-only the monitor turned off
(good), but the system was inhibited from entering standby (also good).

And I think it would be great if this would be the behaviour under KDE when
playing audio while there is no user activity:
- Turn off monitor
- But don't suspend until audio playback is finished
(Or at least make this configurable somewhere)

Kind regards,
Jan
