SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** After updating to KDE 6 playing videos, on youtube, VLC, etc. no longer counts as activity, and my screen gets turned off as per my inactivity settings in the Energy Saving settings. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Update to KDE neon 6 using discover 2. Reinstalling plasma-desktop and other dependencies as per https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481988 3. Adding files to /usr/share/dbus-1/services/ as per https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481938, https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481940 OBSERVED RESULT Screen turns of after a set time period even though I'm watching a video. EXPECTED RESULT Screen will not turn off if I'm watching a video. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 6.0 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Cannot reproduce on Arch Linux by playing a video with VLC, Haruna, SMPlayer and Vivaldi browser. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Graphics Platform: Wayland
Also cannot reproduce on Fedora 39 with Plasma 6 built from source on top of it. Can you update Neon and try again? There were some packaging glitches with the initial 6.0 release that might account for this.
My system is up to date according to pkcon. I'm using X11 as my graphics platform if that makes a difference.
Can reproduce on X11. Despite the power management applet says that VLC is blocking sleep and screen locking, the screen becomes black during playback. The mouse pointer remains visible. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Graphics Platform: X11

I can also reproduce this on X11. In the battery and brightness applet it says that multiple apps are blocking sleep and locking but it still turns off the screen while watching videos. I'll try switching to a Wayland session soon to confirm whether it happens there as well. Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.1 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2 Kernel Version: 6.6.21-1-lts (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11

Also, manually blocking does not work.
(In reply to Philippe ROUBACH from comment #17) > Also, manually blocking does not work. Given that this is marked RESOLVED FIXED, anyone still commenting on things that do not work, please also mention whether you've already upgraded to 6.0.2 which contains that fix.
