I have the exact same problem as he mentioned above...initially, i upgraded from 14.04 to 14.10 ...I am also using unity...
Then i tried doing a clean install and the same thing happens (so obviously it nothing to do with the upgrading factor)....

After the clean install, it initially worked fine...but once i did all
the updates, the problem was there again, so it seems like it something
caused this in the most recent updates (last few days)...

No matter what you set it for, in the "brightness and lock" section of system settings, the screen will not turn off and go to black.
Also having the same problem with lock as the previous report mentioned...

I am running 64 bit version on a laptop with intel graphics and the
standard driver...

Title:
  Screen does not lock or turn off automatically

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Ubuntu 14.10 (upgraded from 14.04), the screen does not lock or
  turn off after the designated time in System Settings / Brightness and
  Lock.

  The screen lock can still be activated manually from the System menu
  or keyboard shortcut (although I notice that the default has changed
  from CTRL-ALT-DEL to Super-L, and if I change this back in the System
  Settings / Keyboard / Shortcuts, both combinations work - it seems
  that the unity plugin in compiz (CCSM / unity / general) has aother
  screen lock key short cut).

  Other users are reporting the same issue: see
