The monitors on my Desktop PC have stopped going to sleep and they will just stay on forever unless I press "esc" on the lock screen.
Running unstable and everything is updated.
Bug I think might be related: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462695

| R1557:b6ec57d63aea Enable support for KF5IdleTimeWaylandPlugin.so | |||
Note that the KDE case was closed, citing it as a downstream packaging issue.
I was able to reproduce this on my system, with a Plasma Wayland session.
In Energy Saving:
Set Dim Screen after 1 min
Set Screen Energy Saving - switch off after 2 min
Screen was not dimmed or switched off after 3 minutes.
Per this comment the file KF5IdleTimeWaylandPlugin.so should exist in /usr/lib/*/qt5/plugins/kf5/org.kde.kidletime.platforms/KF5Idle
This file is not found on my system:
❯ find /usr/lib/ -iname KF5IdleTimeWaylandPlugin.so
This doesn't appear to be fixed. There is no change in behavior on my system after a system update. I verified I have the updated kidletime package installed.
❯ eopkg info kidletime Installed package: Name : kidletime, version: 5.105.0, release: 67
Did a system update with the rebuilds included. This bug is resolved.
There's a separate, unrelated issue.
Sleep works, but monitor dimming only partially works. Filed upstream.
