Hi,
I have a problem where my HDMI display doesn't turn stay turned off when the idle timeout is reached. It gets as far as the screen saying "no input connected" then it turns right back on before the screen actually powers down.
I believe this is a labwc/wlroots problem but haven't been able to find any matching issues there. The closest I found was https://github.com/labwc/labwc/issues/2279 but it's not the same. For me `wlopm` runs without error, it just doesn't keep the screen off.
Things I have tried:
I am out of ideas to try - is it time to submit a bug report to labwc?

Things I have tried:
- Checking for input events with `evtest`. All there is a event relating to the audio subsystem on "vc4-hdmi-0 HDMI Jack". This isn't waking it up.
- Switching to X11, where `xset dpms force off` turns off the display properly.
- Killing the autostarted `swayidle` and running `swayidle -d [...]` shows it going to idle, issuing turn off, then the screen cycles, then after I move the mouse I see the active event and a (redundant) call to turn on.
- Running `wlopm --off *` directly turns the screen off then it immediately comes back on
- Checking with a freshly imaged SD card - no change
I am out of ideas to try - is it time to submit a bug report to labwc?
