Curious screen timeout reset

I never use my Jolla as a phone (too cumbersome), but I have a SIM card in it that I sometimes use for data.

I could not find my phone yesterday so I rang it from another phone. This is the first time ever it has received a call. The next thing I know, I was using the browser and the screen timed out in about 2 seconds. I went to Settings and the screen timeout there was set to 30 seconds. I had to change that to 1 mninute and back to 30 seconds to get my normal timeout back.

Is this an expected behaviour or a bug? Is the phone call relevant or a coincidence? A forum search for "screen timeout" did not come back with anything useful.
