I've been having trouble getting my machines to sleep/standby/suspend 
(basically anything that isn't hibernate).

The issue I'm having is that anytime I have it initiate any of the 
states listed above (and all variants), I can never pull it out of 
sleep. Resume doesn't happen when pressing on the keyboard or moving the 
mouse. In fact, even pressing the power button won't rez the system to 
resume. Funny enough the CPU fan will still spin in all sleep states 
(except hibernate) but no other fans do.

And this isn't just 1 machine. I've got 5 right now with this problem 
and all have the exact same symptom (CPU fan running), 2 on Arch (I 
think one of those might actually be Manjaro), 1 is Gentoo and the rest 
are Debian. All updated to the current latest of their respective 
distro's and none have the same hardware. 2 are using GIGABYTE 
Motherboards (one has an nVIDIA GPU), 1 is using an MSI motherboard and 
the other 2 are Intel motherboards (yeah, I still have em).

Hibernate works like a charm so right now I've just been using that but 
I'd really like to get some type of sleep state other then hibernate 
working. Any recommendations? I've been though the man pages and online 
and there just doesn't seem to be much about this issue.

I've also looked at /sys/power/ to ensure support is there, which is it 
for the states I'm targeting in the /etc/systemd/sleep.conf file. I've 
looked at that file for days. I feel like there is something simple I'm 
missing.

In case it matters I'm running KDE on all machines. Some are using SDDM 
and some are on startx.
