Windows 10: Black screen instead of lock screen picture after screen timeout

Hi!I've just installed Windows 11 on my new computer and run into problem. I set up lock screen into beautiful picture. If I use F9 to lock it, or Ctrl+Alt+Del -> Lock it shows me a picture and asks for a password, everything is fine. But when my mouse is inactive, after some time two minutes I think it turns black. And doesn't turn off - it becomes black and I want it to be lock screen with picture at least, that's how it was on my previous computer. How do I fix it?
