1. Settings>Power>Blank Screen was OFF, but switched this back ON then OFF again 2. The randomness of the blanking period between 15-30 min suggested issue was with ScreenLock 3. ScreenLock (per this bug) is tied to screen blanking 4. GitHub upstream considering 3 options on screen blanking like Android (nothing, lock, hibernate) 5. Screen Lock in my case was a symptom of what appears to be a glitch in screen blanking 6. Toggling screen blanking ON/Off resolved my issue
The randomness in the times of the screen blanking while an issue, is no longer an issue I have as the system now is set to OFF - and so far has remained off.
