I can confirm that this is happening on my Hardy laptop. It didn't used to happen on Hardy, but now does. The screen saver looks like it's going to kick in, but then at the last moment it stops and the screen appears as before. This also prevents power saving (like turning off the screen). If I lock the screen, the screen saver seems to work normally, including turning off the screen.
It almost seems like as the screen saver is engaging, it thinks detects a keypress or mouse movement and thinks it should not screen save. When I lock the screen, it immediately brings up the password box to unlock it, as if I had pressed a key or moved the mouse.
