The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Audio/Video: Playback' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Additional information: using Firefox Flatpak downloaded from Discover Store.

Current Nightly version 138.0a1 is working as expected, screen actually gets blocked by playback.

Hello Martin,

I have been using Nightly for a while (since the opening of this bug report) and it has not caused any issues with any of the versions.
Currently using 141.0a1 - wake lock is working as expected.

Thank you!
