Title:
  Screen is not being turned off after idle time

Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In brightness & lock settings, I set the `Turn off off when inactive
  for` settings to 1 minute, but the screen remains on (an unlocked) for
  ever. The bug is introduced in Ubuntu 14.04 and was not present in
  13.04/13.10.

  I tried `xscreensaver` and it works fine.

  Purging/reinstalling `gnome-screensaver` did not fixed the issue.
  Before uninstall `gnome-screensaver` was being executed at startup, but after reinstall it does not starts automatically anymore. When I try to start it manullay, It prints `screensaver already running in this session` and stops. I can start it with `gksudo` but has no effect and screen remains on.
