Bug ID: 425890
Summary: monitor always turns itself back on a few seconds
after turning off
Product: Powerdevil
Version: 5.19.4
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: tg...@tutanota.com
Target Milestone: ---
I set my keyboard's sleep key to turn my screen off. This worked fine when I
was using Nvidia drivers with my old GTX 960. At some point I replaced it with
a Radeon 5600XT with Mesa drivers. Immediately after this change, pressing the
sleep key shuts the screen off as usual, but it turns itself back on after 1-10
seconds. I have the same problem if I run `xset dpms force off` from a
terminal, or if I wait 10 minutes for the screen to turn off automatically.
I booted Kubuntu from a usb drive and the issue still occurs. I also tried
Ubuntu and Xubuntu, and the problem does not occur on Gnome or XFCE.

May be related to #423035, but that specifies using a shortcut. My issue occurs
any time the screen turns off.
May be related to #348082, although that is old and only mentions the lock
screen.
