I am also on KDE. Suspend to RAM doesn't work on battery. Until this
problem is mitigated I am using hybrid sleep for now which done both
Suspend to RAM and Suspend to Disk. The former is used to wake up the
system if the device is connected to an AC adapter and the latter is used
if it is on the battery.

echo mem > /sys/power/state - this suspended and then didn't wake up.

>If you cat /sys/power/mem_sleep and state are the different from when they

and battery?

$ cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
s2idle [deep]

mem_sleep has the above output irrespective of the power state.

the lid is closed.  The choices can be different for Battery and Plugged
In.  Does
your Desktop Environment also allow for differences?

Lid is not an issue. You can suspend however you want but the end result is
the same. It doesn't wake up. It starts as a fresh boot.
