gnome-screensaver --no-daemon --debug output

I use the following script to lock my console and suspend my screens:

gnome-screensaver-command --lock
sleep 7s
xset dpms force standby

First, everything works as expected. I see the screensaver appearing on the screens and after 7s the screens go into standby mode. But after a few more seconds, the screens wake-up from standby for some unknown reason. I suspect gnome-screensaver as a potential culprit.

Here is a snipped from gnome-screensaver debug:

After a "killall gnome-power-manager" the screens stay in standby mode. So I think that this more an gnome-power-manager issue as an gnome-screensaver related one.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports in Bugzilla which have not seen updates for many years.

If you can still reproduce this issue in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-power-manager/-/issues/

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
