May be due to edit of /etc/systemd/login.conf edited to suspend computer
if login screen is up. uncommented:

#IdleAction=suspend
#IdleActionSec=15min

and saw the behavior. 
 
re-commented and have not seen the behavior. This edit has worked to suspend 
the gdm login screen since 12.04 to 15.04. It does not work for 15.10 or 16.04

Title:
  Random suspend when working

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-304 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I have seen this with 15.10 and now with 16.04. Am running a
  fresh/clean install 16.04LTS (not upgraded) with Nvidia driver
  (361.42). I have a firefox browser open and when browsing, it will
  just suspend randomly. I am typing or mous-ing and it suspends. I do
  have the UI set to suspend when idle for 15 minutes but this is not on
  that schedule. Suspend and resume works correctly. It does not suspend
  on the 15 minute schedule. It just suspends at random. I did not use
  Ubuntu Gnome 15.10 on my computers here because I saw the same
  behavior and 15.04 worked just fine and did not exhibit this behavior.
  Now that 16.04 is out and it is LTS, I want to use it and it is time
  to report a bug. I don't think I can post any relevant log as dmesg
  shows nothing strange. It just looks like a suspend event.

  Description:  Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
  Release:      16.04
