I have the exact same issue with a samsung laptop. I am an IT Professional for over 20 years and this one has me stumped. Did you manage to figure it out ?

The problem: Screen would go dim after ~30 seconds and then lock after ~1 minute

  Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU! This was driving me NUTS for months on my new Lenovo ThinkPad. It made it practically unusable in some cases. Tried adjusting everything in the Windows Advanced Power settings to resolve. Nothing worked. Searched the internet dozens of times. Finally found this post when I added "Lenovo" to my search terms. Instant fix. Thanks!
