I’m using Barrier in a iMac host and an Ubuntu 20.04, one monitor for each one. When using Barrier, after being locked, Ubuntu goes to a black screen but don’t let the monitor enter sleep mode like it does if I disable Barrier...

Could you please solve this? It should only let it go sleep to save energy in the monitor and only awake it when you move the mouse again to that screen.

Thanks
