I think this report is over a pair of known issues that are currently
queued for fixing, but can't be fixed solely in indicator-datetime:

(1) There's currently no way to wake up the phone when it's asleep and
needs to show an alarm. tvoss is working on adding hardware alarm
support to platform-api <https://code.launchpad.net/~thomas-voss
/platform-api/hw-alarms-api> so that indicator-datetime can use that API
to wake up the phone.

(2) There's currently no way to turn on the display when an alarm goes
off. This is similar to the need to show the display when receiving an
incoming call. I summarized the state of this at
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-
datetime/+bug/1283225/comments/2>, but the short summary is this is a
powerd issue, it also needs to watch the hw-alarms-api and wake up the
display.
