(Solved) Laptop screen goes black after shutting down Chromium

General system
1

I seem to have a new issue.
My laptop-screen is turning black when I shut down or minimize Chromium.

The backlight remains active and I can get the screen back when I hit a key or move the mouse.

Just like recovering from a sleeping screen.

Disabling the powemanagement did not solve this problem.

It looks like it only occurs when a webpage is active that uses flash.

Hello @Lemon
Check the power management package It seems to have a problem since the update. You can downgrade it back to 1.6.5-2

pacman -Qi xfce4-power-manager

Edit: I think the new version is 1.6.6-1

Others seem to be having worse issues with this even downgrading. Has it worked for you or are finding other issues too?

So far, all seems fine.
