While in hyprland session, issuing from terminal:

systemctl suspend

works as expected. Same when resuming.

However the following keybind

bind = $mainMod SHIFT, S, exec, systemctl suspend

does not suspend the pc
turns off the monitor
and journalctl produces:

kernel: xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: PM: pci_pm_suspend(): hcd_pci_suspend returns -16
kernel: xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: PM: dpm_run_callback(): pci_pm_suspend returns -16
kernel: xhci_hcd 0000:00:14.0: PM: failed to suspend async: error -16
kernel: PM: Some devices failed to suspend, or early wake event detected

I’ ve tested this behavior on the same pc under X11 with the same keybind and there are no issues whatsoever.

I guess there is something I miss with hyprland.
Any pointers?

Classic. Use

bind = $mainMod SHIFT, S, exec, sleep 1 && systemctl suspend

Your keyboard release event wakes up the kernel.

Jesus, I feel like a complete idiot.
Thanks man.
