Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/4086

While watching videos on Youtube I have to periodically press some buttons to keep LCD backlit on if Firefox is firejailed. If Firefox isn't firejailed, the backlit stays on.
firejail: 0.9.64.4
Firefox: all versions past last couple of years
Distro: Gentoo linux current stable

~/.config/firejail/firefox.profile:

include globals.local
noblacklist ${HOME}/.cache/mozilla
noblacklist ${HOME}/.mozilla
mkdir ${HOME}/.cache/mozilla/firefox
mkdir ${HOME}/.mozilla
whitelist ${HOME}/.cache/mozilla/firefox
whitelist ${HOME}/.mozilla
whitelist ${HOME}/.local/share/data/qBittorrent
whitelist ${HOME}/downloads
whitelist ${RUNUSER}/org.keepassxc.KeePassXC.BrowserServer
whitelist ${RUNUSER}/kpxc_server
whitelist /tmp/krb5cc_1000
include firefox-common.profile

Did a search through the internet, but found nothing corresponding to this problem.

I had to add the whole section, to make this work:

dbus-user filter
dbus-user.own org.mozilla.Firefox.*
dbus-user.own org.mozilla.firefox.*
dbus-user.own org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.firefox.*
# Enable native notifications.
dbus-user.talk org.freedesktop.Notifications
# Allow to inhibit screensavers
dbus-user.talk org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver
# Plasma browser integration
dbus-user.own org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.plasma-browser-integration
dbus-user.talk org.kde.JobViewServer
dbus-user.talk org.kde.kuiserver
ignore dbus-user none

Thank you, rusty-snake for pointing this out.
