Issue/Bug Description This is somewhat of a weird one. I sort of exprienced it also on my previous Ubuntu install (16.04), but I noticed something today that made me think that there is something internal that is the issue.

If I log in to my ServiceNow (http://service-now.com/) work instance and I leave it open and walk away, the system won't dim the screen or unlock on its own. ServiceNow has some rudimentary chat capabilities within them, and when I reported the bug to them they thought that the issue was WebRTC. So I switched to Firefox.

Today I was using Streamtuner2, which opens up a Totem window to stream music and the system did not lock or dim the screen on its own. I went to Firefox and opened the radio station's web page to stream audio and I had the same behavior. The screen wouldn't lock on its own.

If I use Super+L, the screen locks and turns off immediately.

Steps to reproduce (if you know)

Expected behavior The system should lock on its own if I get up and walk away at the defined time interval without intervention.

Other Notes Ubuntu 16.04 did it before I used Pop!. So it may be something deeper. :-/

So I switched my streaming music app from Totem to Banshee and now it locks OK. So that's solved. Still the issue with Chromium and ServiceNow remains.
