Thanks for debugging this. I'm also adding xorg to this bugreport since
it appears something in X is intercepting the keyevent and blanking the
screen. Could you do the following:
Paste in output of: lspci -nn | grep VGA
Attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log
To triagers/developers:
1) xev is showing the key press event for XF86Suspend.
2) with no GPM running, the screen is turned off on keypress
3) on key press with GPM running, GPM does not tell screen is turned off, but
it turns off anyways
** Package changed: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) => xorg (Ubuntu)
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided => Low
** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed

Pressing Suspend key turns off display instead of suspending
