Default Display won't turn off

For years I have had my display turn off after 10 mins.
Now it doesn't.
No matter what setting I use it won't turn off.
The only time it will do it is after a reboot when if I leave my desktop,
the monitor will turn off after 10 mins.
When it comes back on though it won't go back to off after 10 mins of no
activity.
I am at a loss as to why this has stopped working & I can't fix it.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
john

Have you installed any new hardware?
Or updated any hw drivers / firmware?
