Idle timer never stopping the ledger timer

[da2x]

Left my browser open over night. This added 7 hours to the ledger timer of the website that was left open in Brave. Apparently the idle timer isn’t triggered or is ignored.

Brave version 0.12.1dev, Fedora 24 64-bit.

@bridiver - can you take a quick look at this? thanks!

haven't tested it on Fedora, but I wonder if there is something else preventing the idle notification. The idle status is system-wide and not just for Brave. @mrose17 I assume he should see the timer start and stop with ledger logging enabled? It should kick in after 15 minutes of inactivity or on lock - https://developer.chrome.com/apps/idle

@alexwykoff - could someone internally try to reproduce this? (i'm away from my VMs...) thanks!

[bridiver]

I can look later as well, but I need to setup a Fedora VM. We are using Ubuntu for builds/testing

@Aeyoun - thanks again for reporting this. i may have found the issue. i will circle back in a bit.

i'm pretty sure that #4186 fixes this. the idle timer is 15m.

note that a future revision may ignore the idle timer if audioPlaybackActive: true

Fixed #4194
