Bazzite sleeps during video playback

bazzite-deck

GMKTec M7 with 680M GPU

Issue
When playing video via Plex or VacuumTube, the machine will sleep as per its schedule.

Expected Behaviour
Machine stays awake when playing video and only sleeps when truly idle

Troubleshooting
Adjusted sleep settings in desktop; no change
No advanced power options in Steam
Bazzite will sleep based on the environment it’s in; i.e game mode respects sleep settings in SteamOS; desktop mode respects sleep settings in KDE power settings
Sleep seems tied to input rather than video playback
