Issue description

After upgrading from 18.03 to unstable my headless desktop tower just keeps suspending after some period of idleness. This happens irrespective of display manager (GDM) status and attempts at manual disabling via logind did not help.

Technical details

nix-shell

 - system: `"x86_64-linux"`
 - host os: `Linux 4.13.0, NixOS, 18.09pre142796.4b649a99d84 (Jellyfish)`
 - multi-user?: `yes`
 - sandbox: `no`
 - version: `nix-env (Nix) 2.0.4`
 - channels(root): `"nixos-18.09pre142796.4b649a99d84"`
 - nixpkgs: `/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user/root/channels/nixos`

configuration.nix

Also select options from configuration.nix:

powerManagement.enable = false;
services.logind.lidSwitch = "ignore";
services.logind.extraConfig = "IdleAction=ignore";

services.xservers.desktopManager.gnome3.enable = true;
services.xserver.displayManager.gdm.enable = true;

Suspend on idle is disabled for my account in GNOME settings.
