IN 12.04 at least, this seems to be tied to Xorg's blanking which by
default happens after 10 minutes/600 seconds. It can be unset via xset
on the commandline, but I finally managed to do this via xorg.conf, like
so:
jani@saegusa:~$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*

Confirmed on 12.10 Quantal Quetzal. This exact problem began happening
to me after an upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10.
This seems to be a bug with the upgrade process screwing up power
management settings.
