Hello! I’m quite new to forum posts, so please forgive me if I don’t have everything down just yet. I’ve looked around the forum, but nothing seems to describe my particular issue, and solutions haven’t helped.
When I put my computer into sleep (suspend-to-RAM), it shuts the case and peripherals down, and if I try to wake it, it refuses to wake up. My peripherals and case come on, but my displays don’t turn on, and the computer takes no inputs.
Since I’ve seen journalctl mentioned in some places, here’s the output of journalctl | grep sleep for the latest sleep event I tried.

I’m not fully sure what the issue is. I noticed that it’s telling me “User sessions remain unfrozen on explicit request” and that it isn’t recommended (my system is encrypted), but I’m not quite sure how to fix that? It also seems like org_kde_powerdevil is struggling with my displays, but that’s more of a guess than anything. Any ideas? I’m willing to try anything.
