Public bug reported: This is a bug that I seen had off and on across various versions of Ubuntu. Currently in 18.10 it's back again. The screen never goes blank no matter what I set the time to. I can do sleep1; xset dpms force standby manually from a terminal and that works. But the system will not sleep the screen automatically.
