Default keeping computer "unlocked" when idle for a period of time


Hello! I am trying to find a way to prevent my computer from going into
"locked" mode when it is idle for awhile. I listen to internet radio and
after about 20min or so of being idle, my computer locks my account as if I
put it into "sleep" mode. Therefore, cutting off my radio connection. Is
there any way I can change the settings so that I can listen longer than
20min? I already changed the amount of time before putting computer to
"sleep" while plugged in to "never" but this did not help at all. Thanks!
