iOS and (reportedly) Windows Phone always wake the display for a few
seconds -- just as if you had tapped the home button or pressed the
sleep/wake button -- when a notification arrives of the sort that
appears on the lock screen.
Android used to do the same, but as of 5.0 apparently no longer does,
unless you (a) turn on the "Ambient display" setting, (b) use a Motorola
and leave on the "Active display" setting, or (c) install an app like
Glimpse Notifications. ("Using Android Lollipop's lock screen
notifications? Tired of having to press the power button to see them?
Then this app is for you!")
For Ubuntu, the relevant part of the spec says: "If the screen display
is off (black), the expected behaviour is to wake the phone by simply
tapping on the screen or by using the physical button on the side. Once
the display is active, user can interact with the notification bubbles."
<https://goo.gl/bh9KHi> I think a couple of points need clearing up:
1. Should tapping the screen *normally* wake the phone, or is this
behavior specific to a certain period after a notification has arrived?
If the former, it would help to link to the relevant spec. If the
latter, how long is the period?
2. If a notification would play a sound, should this sound still play
even when the screen does not wake up?

Title:
[Notifications] turn the screen on
Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
Triaged
Status in indicator-messages package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Built: r20
When getting a notification, such as a text message, the screen will turn on.
This becomes a problem when the device is kept in a pocket,
where it may falsely register screen activity and thus stay on for hours.
