Computer resuming from suspend often. Cannot find trigger

Hi, Aurora (and Bluefin) friends!

My computer (12700k, 4080Super) will not stay asleep. At seemingly random times (anywhere from 2 hours to 15 minutes) it will resume on its own. This happens with or without an Ethernet cable plugged in (so it’s not a WoL issue).

sudo dmidecode -t system | grep -P '\tWake-up Type: ’

That command always says “Power Switch”, even if I woke it with a keypress, so it’s not very helpful.

Any suggestions where to look? This is the one thing keeping me from being completely happy with Aurora-dx-Nvidia. It’s an amazing distro, but I’m having the devil of a time tracking down WHY it’s waking up.

I think this is a current KDE Plasma issue. Does this sound familiar because the same thing happens with Bazzite.

Does this sound familiar? But it could also be something else that both Aurora/Bazzite are using too.

Edit: this might be kernel related too… desktop linux is always full of fun regressions like this :smile:
