Emby Theater Flatpak on Fedora Linux locks screen during playback

[QuarkSolution 5]

Just as the title suggests.

I have Emby Theater (Flatpak) running on Fedora Kinoite 38, and my laptop locks its screen during video playback on it. It is rare that I do not also do some work while watching a video on my laptop, which is why I discovered it so late, but if I do not touch the touchpad or the keyboard for the amount of time I have set for the screen to be locked while video is playing on Emby Theater, my laptop locks itself.

HI, yes we'll add this to our to do list for the app. Currently we're only handing this on windows. Thanks.

Hey hey, just letting you know that the problem still exists. And the Flatpak app is broken either way, I have to run it with an outdated runtime (org.freedesktop.Platform/x86_64/21.08) instead of the runtime the app is built with.

Hi, we are working on revamping this:

So stay tuned.

For future readers, if the new Emby Theater hasn't been released yet, you can fix the screen locking bug by manually allowing Emby Theater Flatpak to "talk" to "org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver" session bus.
