Comment (by tpavlic):

 I can confirm that SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER restores the expected
 behavior. ffplay is not at fault. This ticket can be closed. Thanks.


 (FYI, the similar problem in mplayer is due to a bug discovered today that
 was making "nostop-xscreensaver" not do anything. That is, "stop-
 xscreensaver" was always asserted. Once the single line of code is checked
 in that fixes that problem, then mplayer won't have this issue either)
