Big Sur Big Headache with screen saver via a config profile

[psherotov]

I know this is a very OCD kind of thing to be driving me crazy but when I upgrade an iMac to Big Sur the screen saver never comes on!!! I have tried everything I can think of from removing every other profile to trying different combinations and it just won't work!

Any guidance on finding the issue or the magic combination needed would be greatly appreciated.

If there are other (none-Jamf binary) solutions, please let me know as well.

I have energy saver settings, login, security & privacy, and finder configuration profiles for our Library iMacs. I'm attaching screenshots of each config profile.

No one has any solutions or ideas about this? :-)

@psherotov Any luck? Having the same issues here. Installed a new lab a few days ago and they are staying black screen. Whats worse is that they won't get any policies or anything jamf pushes to them, its like they are off, but aren't. Doesnt make any sense. Ive made all necessary changes and adjustments to energy saver but still having the same issue. Im not liking Big Sur too much.

I'm seeing a different issue where the screen saver cannot be disabled. The default time can be changed from 1 minute up to 1 hour despite having it set for 5 minutes.
