Hi,
VLC will open gnome-power-manager in the background with an icon in the tray, as it should.

I am running KDE and do the power settings with the kde powermanager.

The problem is that when gpm starts it will apply its own settings, possibly different from the settings in kde pm. It's unconfortable to adjust brightness and stuff twice each time. Uninstalling gpm solves the problem with no unwanted effects.

I confirm that the bug is still here with the VLC from unstable updated today, and also confirm that it only starts when VLC is running.

The experimental version of VLC seems to be starting gnome-power-manager when playing a movie. Gnome-power-manager never starts by itself in any other situation that when playing a movie with VLC.

So it opens the window of gnome-power-manager ? not just start it in the
background ?
This is unconfortable because:
-gnome-power-manager will change the brightness set by the KDE applet
-gnome-power-manager does not have a quit option, so it needs to be killed by some means.

I'm a bit confused. Are you running Gnome or KDE ?
