This is kind of old, and I do not know if this applies to 18.04, but it does in 19.04, and since no one else has answered and I was looking through this thread to find an answer to my own question... I thought I would tell you what I can. I am new to Linux so forgive me if this is simple or not even the answer, but my computer was doing this till my son put on Caffeine. You might give that a try. I hope it helps.
@TulsaJim thanks for responding. I had forgotten about this. I ended up doing the same thing to fix my problem ..... wish there was a better way in the OS !

): Pop OSIssue/Bug Description: I recently installed whatever updates were pushed to my computer in the past couple days. I hadn't used the machine in a couple weeks before. Now my screen seems to be shutting off after 14-15 seconds. Wall power is plugged in. I thought it was maybe i had done something in settings, but I've checked my power settings and i have the below. Is there another setting I'm missing that might control this? There doesn't seem to be any screen-saver settings, and the relevant power settings seem pretty limited so I'm at a bit of a loss.
"blank screen" set to Never "dim screen when inactive" set to off "automatic suspend" set to off
Steps to reproduce (if you know): move mouse.... wait 15 seconds ... screen powers down
Expected behavior:
screen to stay on.... longer than 14 seconds
