Space bar is “accept” in many interfaces. If the screen was off but not locked, and a dialog box was focused, hitting space will submit that in some OS.
I remember one time when I was a youth trying to fix my dad’s computer, he tried to wake it with the space bar. The screen came on and that space bar cancelled some long running operation. Woops.

Control, on the other hand, won’t.
