Hello,
my monitor has an "auto" mode that automatically switch the input soruce (HDMI or DisplayPort). It works fine on X11 and on Windows, but not on Wayland. When I'm on Wayland the monitor never goes in standby, it's always-on. This happens in Plasma as in GNOME so I I reported it on Wayland's gitlab.

They replied that is something related to the DE and not to Wayland. See: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/issues/351

Indeed, Wayland is a protocol that gets implemented; it doesn't have any code of its own. So if the issue happens in both Plasma and GNOME, there either both of those desktop environments' compositors suffer from exactly the same bug, or else it's a single bug somewhere deeper in the stack, most likely in your graphics drivers. So I'd recommend that you report this at https://docs.mesa3d.org/bugs.html.

Thanks a lot for your tips. Much more useful than the Wayland's one.

Hello,
I'm not sure if this bugfix has been ported on Neon Unstable https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452553 but it probably fixed this problem for me.
I've updated to the latest Neon Unstable and the monitor standby now works fine. Many thanks!
