Hi Nicholas, Increasing the timeout won't help as the dGPU is not powered/available. If you have an external monitor connected, the dGPU will stay powered on and not suspend (with a (temporary) effect similar to booting with nouveau.runpm=0).
The reason for the failure to restore power is still unknown, it seems related to the PCI core.
