The screen on both of my JetKVM devices doesn't turn off after 10 minutes has passed. I have tried setting this to other settings, but regardless of how many minutes it is set to turn off after, it just never does. The same thing happens with screen dimming, nothing happens after the time has passed.

Same here after upgrading to 0.4.4

App version: 0.4.4
System: 0.2.4

I did not have the issue with 0.3.9. I just upgraded from 0.3.9 to 0.4.4 and now have the problem with the display no longer turning off. I tried changing the settings, rebooting, etc. and the new display bug continues unabated. It will sometimes finally turn off only to randomly turn itself back on again. This was no issue with 0.3.9.

I'm worried it's going to burn it out so I'm unplugging it and seeking to downgrade if possible.

EDIT — After rebooting it again and fidgeting with the settings again it seems to now keep the display off.

FINAL EDIT I spoke too soon. Today walking by and the screen is back on without any interaction and staying on. It's still an issue that wasn't there before. I'm unplugging it until someone addresses this with a fix so it doesn't burn itself out?
