Screen Won't Timeout

No matter which timeout setting I use my phone's screen doesn't time out, whether charging or not. And no, I don't have the
stay awake while charging option selected. A hard reset nor a factory reset fixed this issue. This became an issue after
my phone was updated to 2.3.3.  Any ideas?

Usually this is caused by a app running in background like a music player usually because they have options to keep screen alive while player is open, check all apps open..  Pandora did this to me before...

Hmm, although not launched I found my Google Music app as a running service.  I stopped it and my screen timed out at its allotted time.  I'm going to run some additional tests.  Thanks for the suggestion.
