Thanks, that sure seems related. So Chromium, is meddling with power management. Very useful piece of information I think. The fact that I do not have powerdevil installed might be part of the issue: "powerdevil: Restoring DPMS features after inhibition release" What then if powerdevil is not installed? I'll try to reinstall powerdevil, and see if that helps. Alternatively I can "Restore DPMS features" by hand, which I've done lately, and which seems to work.
