Public bug reported:
Right now on Ubuntu 16.10, using VLC installed via snap will not inhibit
screensaver from kicking in when videos are played. The reason is
AppArmor profile for snaps that's blocking VLC from instructing
screensaver via dbus:
apparmor="DENIED" operation="dbus_method_call" bus="session"
path="/ScreenSaver" interface="org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver"
member="Inhibit" mask="send" name="org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver"
pid=24667 label="snap.vlc.vlc" peer_pid=2979 peer_label="unconfined"
