Display turning on immediately after turn off timer in power settings.

Whenever the timer goes off, the monitors turn black, but immediately power back on as if something is constantly waking them up.

My desktop has had a similar issue before of the monitor never turning off, but that turned out to be a controller being plugged in issue (for some reason) but that issue was resolved by unplugging my controller when its not in use. This time the problem seems
much more difficult to route.

I've tried many methods regarding sleep issues on windows 10, such as:

• Disabling fast startup
• Windows is up to date
• Adjusting my display and sleep mode timers
• Checking for power requests using CMD (nothing is requesting power)
• Checking last wake event (empty, as my computer is not going to sleep, merely turning off the display)
• Ran the windows power troubleshooter
• Toggle USB selective suspend
• Using the Turn Off Monitor tool still results in the same issue, the monitor turns off and instantly back on.

However my issue is not a sleep issue. My PC goes to sleep perfectly fine, and the monitors turn off then, but not when the display timer goes off.

In safe mode, the displays are properly staying off. I have clean reinstalled my graphics driver to the latest update (GTX1060 ver. 451.67), deleted and reinstalled my dell monitor display manager, and double checked my peripherals to make sure no button
is being pressed and the mouse is not affecting the wake up.

After scouring google and some hair-pulling, I've exhausted the options I could find. Please let me know if there's anything else you can think of that can solve this issue!
