Windows 10: Displays Immediately Turn Back On After Idling

My PC will be sitting for 30 minutes I have it set to turn off displays after 30 minutes and once the displays turn off, they immediately come back on. I know something is registering me as active, as I have Discord and it gives me the idle status after being idle or "afk" for about 10-20 minutes, but when my displays turn back on immediately after going idle, it changes my status to online. I'll be in bed, shopping for groceries, etc, and when I return to my PC afterHOURS of not being active, my displays will be on and my apps will have me registered as online rather than idle. I would set my PC to go to sleep after 1-2 hours of inactivity, but I have some personal projects/work that require my PC to be on, or rather running.

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.
