Details

When playing audio on background, the wakelock state is locked-background. However, on linux, we didn't request wakelock for locked-background [1].

Therefore, on linux we didn't prevent computer from sleeping when playing audio from background tab.

Alastor, so do you suggest to add locked-background to wakelock? Do I understand correctly that we want to dim screen but prevent power management to turn computer to sleep, right?
