Home Assistant Android app version(s): 2023.10.2-full Android version(s): 11, 13, 14 Device model(s): Galaxy Tab A, Pixel 6 Home Assistant version: 2023.10.3 Last working Home Assistant release (if known): unknown Description of problem, include YAML if issue is related to notifications:

Context: Tried two separate Android devices, both exhibit the problem described below. Both have their OS screen timeout set to 15 seconds. Both have their companion app with "Keep on screen" setting "off" Issue presents whether charging or not.

Issue: When a the dashboard has a live camera stream, the device's screen timeout has no effect, the dashboard remains on and active. When the dashboard has NO live camera stream, the device's screen timeout works as expected.

Companion App Logs: Too long to share here, over github comment limit of 65536 characters Google drive link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UaXKwMCnvQV3ZC6XuHDeeht4AmLf5v1S/view?usp=sharing

Screenshot or video of problem: Note, my Nest camera's "auto" view shows a weird blank image since I transferred it to the Google Home app.
