Screen does not turn off after screen lock, gnome/gdm/wayland

super L -> screen locks, starts power save, then backlight turns back on.

trying to google/wiki but my searches aren't helping get anywhere. i do not see any indication of the event in journalctl or dmesg. i see the blocks in the systemd-inhibit --list but for some reason dead ending with those searches as well..
