I'm having a simmilar problem with yomvi player (silverlight activated

ubuntu 14.04 and in the end I have to disable screensaver and energy
saving.

Title:
  screensaver turns on while watching youtube video

Status in gnome-screensaver package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Screensaver on laptop turns on while watching youtube videos and
  laptop is on battery power. It doesn't matter if video is fullscreen
  or not. Screen saver turns itself on. This shouldn't happen. If video
  is playing it means someone is using the screen. It doesn't happen in
  windows. i also didn't see this happening on desktop Kubuntu install.
  i have not yet tested media players such as VLC to see if it also
  happens there.

  Hardware: HP dm1 with E-450 APU (using proprietary AMD drivers), 2 GB
  RAM, Kubuntu 64bit 13.04 (all updates applied, vanilla install)
