Title:
  Display fails to sleep if "Do nothing" is selected for when laptop lid
  is closed

Status in “gnome-power-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

  If "Do nothing" is selected for "When laptop lid is closed" and the
  laptop lid is closed, the external monitor never goes to sleep. If the
  lid is left open, the external monitor goes to sleep as it should.

  To reproduce: 
  1. Set "Do nothing" for "When laptop lid is closed". If it's not listed, see here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1319921
  2. Set "Put display to sleep when inactive" to 0:01. 
  3. Disable screensaver if it's enabled. 
  4. Close the laptop lid. 
  5. Wait a few minutes. 

  Nothing happens.

  If however the laptop lid is open, the monitor goes to sleep as it
  should.
