Description
One of our users has his Bitwarden extension in Firefox set to lock after five minutes. He just walked away from his computer, came back after 20 minutes, and his vault wasn't locked. This is consistent for him -- he says he pretty much never sees his vault get locked.
Another user attempted to reproduce this but could not. So the "look after # minutes" functionality appears to work for some users and not for others, though we can't figure out what's different between the two users.

Research direction
No files or tests are identified in the issue. Start by locating the Firefox extension's vault timeout and locking behavior, then compare the affected user's configuration with a working setup; reproduce the five-minute setting and verify that the vault locks after inactivity.
