            Bug ID: 364592
           Summary: Controller input does not prevent screen from turning
                    off
           Product: Powerdevil
           Version: 5.5.5
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: andysem at mail.ru

Controller (Dualshock 4 gamepad) input does not prevent screen energy saving.
As a result the display turns off while one is playing a game with a
controller. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure a timeout for turning off the screen in the System Settings ->
Power Management.
2. Start a game with a controller support. I use The Talos Principle.
3. Play the game with the gamepad for a while.

Actual Results:  
The screen turns off mid-game after the timeout.

Expected Results:  
Controller input should count as input and prevent the screen from turning off.

Kubuntu 16.04 x86_64, Nvidia drivers 367.27.
