This is a desktop PC with OpenSUSE 13.2 (x86_64). Since KDE 5.6 my monitor turns off (I guess an energy saving mode) after a couple of minutes even though I have this setting disabled in systemsettings5 like I always had. (I would give you the exact name of this setting but even though I set System Settings to run in english it shows most words in my german - maybe another bug. The german name is: Energiesparmodus - Bildschirm abdunkeln) This does not happen when I am logged into an XFCE session. BTW this is the only session on this machine. I tried changing the setting by enabling it and setting the time-out to 1 minute. This also does not have any effect. So it looks like KDE is not reading/finding the setting and using a default? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login to a KDE 5 session. 2. Make sure the energy/power setting for turning off the moniter after a configurable time is turned off. 3. Wait a little, i.e. watch a movie in full screen mode. Actual Results: Screen turns black and monitor LED indicates a power saving mode. Expected Results: Screens stays on.
