Description of problem, include YAML if issue is related to notifications:

Context:
Tried two separate Android devices, both exhibit the problem described below.
Both have their OS screen timeout set to 15 seconds.
Both have their companion app with "Keep on screen" setting "off"
Issue presents whether charging or not.

Issue:
When a the dashboard has a live camera stream, the device's screen timeout has no effect, the dashboard remains on and active.
When the dashboard has NO live camera stream, the device's screen timeout works as expected.
