Currently running Nobara 41, and if Firefox is playing a video, or even just has a paused video on it, my computer will not go to sleep until I exit Firefox entirely. If I try to shut down instead, it will seemingly close all open apps, and the displays will go black but the mouse cursor remains on screen and does not respond.

If I start Firefox from the CLI, it shows nothing when I try to suspend.

This only happens with Firefox, and as far as I can tell, doesn’t happen when playing a video elsewhere.

I don’t have any power savings settings that I’m aware of that should be preventing anything, so I don’t know what’s going on. This is a recent issue, starting maybe 2 weeks ago. I haven’t installed any new software besides updates in that time.

Does anybody have any idea what is going on here?

    That’s not a fix though, it’s a hoop to jump through every time. Regardless of OS, it’s incorrect behavior.
