SUMMARY
I have a very low screen timeout (1 minute) on my laptop and before the screen turns off, there is an animation that makes the screen darker and darker and then turns it of.

There are 2 bugs:
 - (only visual, minor) the screen flickers shortly up again before it gets turned off
 - When interrupting the animation (i.e pressing a key or moving the mouse) the screen gets lit up again, I can move the cursor but I can not click on anything, the keyboard is not working and key combinations are also not working. I need to close the lid of the laptop, go into stand by and then it start it again and everything is back to normal

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set low screen timeout
2. Wait for the screen to turn off (don't do anything with it)
3. Exactly when the animation is there, move the mouse or press a key
