seems like a gnome-settings-daemon issue that was just discussed on IRC
today, if your issue is about screen being turned off and not
screensaver

the xorg default dpms value is 600s (10 minutes) but g-s-d doesn't
change that, it does its own tracking to turn off the screen or lock it
and doesn't update the dpms counter, which means xorg just put the
screen in idle after 10 minutes

Title:
  Screensaver activates at the wrong times in Oneiric

Status in Gnome Settings Daemon:
  Unknown
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In my up-to-date oneiric, screensaver is acting errantly. I switched
  the setting to 1 minute. The screen began fading away at the proper
  time. I then ran a video in totem for a time and the screen cut off at
  ten minutes (with no fading). I then cut off the video and the screen
  faded (as it should) after a minute.

  I cannot reliably determine what it is that the issue is. I have asked
  someone to repro the issue and they didn't seem to be affected. I've
  deleted all my settings files and the issue persists.
