I have a similar issue. It only occurs when I wake when the monitors have been turned off due to inactivity.
The system appears to take my password, but the screens go black. I can move the cursor around, but nothing other than the cursor appears on the screens.
If I ssh to the box and restart the lightdm service, the login dialog appears and after putting in my password the monitors display normally.
This appears to happen only with kernel 6.12.19-1. If I run 6.6.83-1 it’s (mostly?) fine.
When it works journalctl show the following:
Mar 26 11:39:35 CoolerMaster systemd[1]: Stopped User Manager for UID 620.
Mar 26 11:39:35 CoolerMaster systemd[1]: Stopping User Runtime Directory /run/user/620...

Mar 26 11:40:04 CoolerMaster systemd[1480]: Starting Xfce configuration service...
Mar 26 11:40:04 CoolerMaster systemd[1480]: Started Xfce configuration service.
When it doesn’t work the last two lines don’t appear, i.e. the Xfce configuration service does not start.
For the moment I’ll run the older kernel. (This may occur very intermitently with the old kernel. It happens 100% of the time with the new one.)
Edit: And it now seems to be broken on both kernels.
Please provide system information (as described below.) Post any code or command output as preformatted text (see link below).
Adding your own issue to another Member’s topic is generally discouraged and detracts from the original Support request.
Saying “I have the same (or similar) issue” is invariably subjective. You would still be required to provide information specific to your issue, which is best done from your own thread where those wishing to help can easily reference it.
Please change this topic title to something meaningful.

Welcome to the Manjaro community
As a new or infrequent forum user, please take some time to familiarise yourself with Forum requirements, and the many ways to use the forum to your benefit:
Update Announcements
The Update Announcements contain important information and a Known Issues and Solutions section that should generally be checked before posting a request for support.
System Information
Output of this command (formatted according to forum requirements) may be useful for those wishing to help:
inxi --filter --verbosity=8
or the short form:
inxi -zv8
Be prepared to provide more information and outputs from other commands whenever asked. It’s equally important to provide as much actionable information as possible in your first post, rather than simply indicating there is a problem.
It worked twice in a row yesterday and then failed this morning.
It’s a guess, but journalctl shows this in the log about the time I try to get it to wake up.

Apr 07 08:01:53 CoolerMaster gvfsd-trash[1917]: GFileInfo created without standard::name
Apr 07 08:01:53 CoolerMaster gvfsd-trash[1917]: file …/glib/gio/gfileinfo.c: line 1698 (g_file_info_get_name): should not be reached
The last two lines are repeated many (hundreds?) of times. If waking up suceeds I don’t think I’ve seen these line in the log.
What I am noticing, as someone with a “similar” problem is the commonality with Nvidia graphics card. This black screen has been happening in my TW install since 6.12.6 . . . but has now hit my Manjaro 6.13.8-2 kernel . . . .
So far no solution found, but this has been a recurring problem with my GTX 780 card . . . for different reasons each time . . . all traced to the GPU eventually.
I’ll post another thread when I get back to the machine that has the problem.
