Lock screen not locking upon resume (org.gnome.desktop.lockdown

yep, there we go, works fine now. I wonder what component malfunctioned
when setting that, could have been wine or vlc or any number of things
that prevent sleep while playing media, I suppose. It's too bad that
there's no indicator or overrider to let a user know what's going on in
this scenario.

This
why am I not surprised that sending a cryptic dbus command is the
"correct" way to lock the screen from the cli these days.
in any case, I can run that command as often as you like, and it always
returns success to the shell, but it never locks the screen:
tessa@boxxy:~/Downloads$ dbus-send
Thank you for your bug report. Could you add your 'journalctl -b 0' log
after getting the issue?
gnome-screensaver is an old legacy component that isn't needed nor
installed nowadays so it's not what you need to lock the screen, you
should be able to test with that command though
$ dbus-send
