How to disable screensaver lock?
I want that my monitor turns off when I am inactive for a while, but I do not want that I am prompted for a password when I revoke my pc. In Ubuntu 16.04 it was possible to disable the lock but still enable the screensaver as explained here.
In Ubuntu 18.04 I entered the following in terminal:
dconf-editor
and disabled ubuntu-lock-on-suspend:
However, since I made this change, my monitor never suspends anymore. I tried restart but it didn't help.
Any ideas how I can disable lock but still enable suspend mode?

One may disable the lock here:
But still enable suspend here:
