Public bug reported: After some period of time browsing the web in Firefox, and then closing the browser, the computer will not go to sleep. The system tray icon for xfce4-power-manager has multiple entries that say "firefox is currently inhibiting power management". However, all Firefox processes have already been exited at this time, so there is no reason for Firefox to have prevented the sleep.
Power management should ONLY be inhibited while watching full screen videos in Firefox, not after closing the browser. There appears to be an issue with the power management inhibition state not being updated. It seems to happen randomly/unpredictable after browsing for a while.
