I have the same problem. Ryzen 5600H laptop. I "fixed" it with a posthook Script thats switches between my first and second tty. That works for me.

Interesting. Just switching to the tty doesn't fix things for me, though. I need to restart my whole graphical environment i.e. by restarting my display manager. So, it's about as convenient as just shutting down and powering back up. It's unfortunate because my desktop eats up about 110W when idle, and approximately 0W when suspended. I also use some sketchy successor to "barrier" to share my mouse and keyboard with my work laptop, and that somehow keeps my monitors from shutting off if I happen to leave the mouse cursor on the laptop's screen. That's another 100W according to my UPS. There are undoubtedly dozens of power plants that exist purely due to the overall number of software bugs that exist. They're talking about banning natural gas in favor of electrical heating here in California, and I live in a chillier climate, so I must be saving the Earth by leaving my desktop powered on most of the time out of convenience.

  Same for me. I even had it working for a while but then a kernel upgrade or something else seemed to have broken it again.

    It's frustrated me to the point that it was a major factor in deciding to splurge on buying a Steam Deck. The suspend / resume works so flawlessly on it that I weep. I keep an arbitrary game running on it in the drawer of my night stand. I don't actually have the energy to play a game that often, but knowing that resume button will work brings me great comfort.

  > Just switching to the tty doesn't fix things for me I found a very strange one... Had the same issue. Switching to tty and then back to GUI would work fine so, to me, it wasn't that much of an issue. I used that workaround for months. Then one day I decided to look into it: switched the HDMI cable for a DisplayPort cable and the problem is now gone! If I put the HDMI cable back on, the issue happens again. It may or may not help some people having similar issues with their desktops.

    I currently have a monitor plugged in via DP, another one via HDMI, and a VR headset also via DP. Having the VR headset plugged in causes no shortage of display and audio bugs. I need to change my desk configuration in a few months, and it's going to get a lot simpler since I am going to separate out my work setup. At that point I won't be able to justify keeping the desktop powered on 24/7, so working suspend would be a major quality of life improvement. I'll keep that in mind, and try to avoid HDMI completely.
