A running application asks for password when suspending to RAM the first time

Whenever I try to suspend my laptop to RAM the first time after booting, the system asks me to type in the root password, then it all works perfectly fine, I can suspend my computer and it doesn’t ask me the password again.

It never asked me before though, I don’t know what may cause this, I only remember changing the behaviour when closing the screen, which suspends the system.

No, it doesn’t break my pc but it’s pretty annoying, and I’m too noob to change system settings myself and I don’t want to break it.

If someone is willing to help me, thanks in advance.

welcome!
try unticking the lock screen options in power manager and session and startup applications :point_down:

A running application tries to explictly inhibt suspending (spotify or any media player running?) that’s why you’re asked for authentication to override this.

These options were already unchecked, thanks!

I pasted and formatted the text, thanks.

It appears Audacious was running in the background, I must have opened and never closed it.
