Created attachment 8052 Relevant systemd logs

Hello I packaged xfce4-screensaver for openSUSE and I'm maintaining it in the following development repository: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/X11:xfce/xfce4-screensaver

Lock-screen does not play well with Laptop Lid actions + suspend/resume:

Steps to reproduce:

  1. select "Suspend" in Xfce Power Manager > General > Laptop Lid
  2. select "Lock screen when screensaver is active" in Screen Saver Preferences
  3. close lid and wait for system to suspend.
  4. open lid and resume system

Result: Lock screen appears for a fraction of a second and then desktop content appears without the need of entering user's login password. However the desktop is locked because I need to blindly type my login password before I can do anything further.

What works: On the other end when calling suspend through the menu and then resume, the lock-screen works as expected.

I attached systemd logs for reference.
