In settings, go to Privacy-->Screen Lock.

Choose a Blank Screen Delay.
Turn on "Automatic Screen Lock"
Set "Automatic Screen Lock Delay" to "Screen Turns Off

See if that works after the chosen time.
That;s what I first checked, and I already had those settings.
Changing the time just changes at what point the screen blanks. I
leave it a while and then hit a key or move the mouse the the screen
flicks back on and there is no password prompt.


Well, it works for me.

It blanks after the time specified and if the "lock delay" hasn't expired it won't ask
for a password.  So, if one is set to 3 and the other 3 then it takes 6 minutes to
request a password.
