This problem affected me initially in 9.10, but not anymore. In my case I did:
- open gconf-editor (no sudo / root)
- navigate to /apps/gnome-power-manager/locks
- disable lock_on_hibernate
- disable lock_on_suspend

After this the screen would still get locked after a suspend, so I
googled to here:) When I used the suggested command (sudo gconf-editor)
I found the 2 boxes were still checked. Apparently the gconf settings
are different for different users. Unchecking these 2 boxes again
resulted in no screen lock after suspend!

Strangely now only the gconf user setting affects locking, the root
setting can be set to 'lock->yes'.. If I kill the gnome-power-manager
and restart it as root, the gconf root setting does affects the presence
of the screen lock after suspend. So for you it might have something to
do with the per user setting, but I don't know if this is the case for
everybody:)

Disabling the suspend and hibernate locks via gconf-editor doesn't do anything 
(from Intrepid to Karmic included)
