When user activates lockscreen with Ctrl+Alt+L or Super+L shortcut or from indicator-session the screen should blank off after a couple seconds. The new Unity lock screen doesn't turn off the monitor screen. I can wait as long as 10 minutes after activating the lock screen and the monitor still doesn't turn off. Then when I unlock the screen and don't use mouse or keyboard monitor will turn off (it's about 5 seconds after unlocking).
