Windows 10: Turn Off Display Help

I have 2 options to set for turn off display;

"Turn off display after x minutes" as well as "Console lock display off timeout after x minutes"

So the display turns off after the set amount of minutes, but it turns back on after exactly 13 minutes and 30 seconds. And then turns back off according to the set display off settings. This frustrates me because when I lock my computer and go to sleep the display turns off like it should, I start to fall asleep and then after 13 minutes and 30 seconds it turns back on and wakes me up. It doesn't matter what the display off setting is at. The display turns itself back on after any display off setting.

I've played around with all of the power settings and can't figure out what is causing my pc to wake up by itself. I turned off "allow wake timers" and can't find anything here with a timer set to 13 minutes.

Does anybody know how to set the display to turn off and keep it off without it turning itself back on?

Display does not turn off when pc is idle

Just did all the suggestions. Did not work. Display does not turn off.

This issue was from the beginning when I downloaded Win 10. I had Win 8.1 and the display always turned off as I set it.

My pc is HP Pavilion Touchsmart 23 all-in-one. According to "checking for updated drivers on display and monitors", I always get the response that the drivers currently installed are the correct ones.
