Games prevent the system from entering sleep mode

Games prevent the system from entering sleep mode. All I've managed to do with the system so far is create a systemctl service that temporarily enables WoL via ethtool on PC startup. That's all, no further interaction with the system. Log: https://paste.centos.org/view/0073fa7d The graph shows the PC performance after 20 minutes of AFK time. The system is configured to enter sleep mode after 20 minutes of inactivity.

@Bazzite Maintainer Has anyone at least tried to figure out this problem please?

I think I am seeing something similar. In my case I am using the power button instead of waiting for idle sleep. The game will keep running instead of the system going to sleep. Exiting the game will immediately put the system to sleep. Asus Prime b550m-k argb Ryzen 3900x RX 7600 This happens in both game mode and desktop. From journalctl it looks like systemd does start the sleep process. systemd-sleep starts and networking gets disabled. It just does not actually get the system to sleep. I played around with bazzite-rollback-helper and found that stable-41.20241209 is the last version in which sleep worked correctly. It fails from stable-41.20241210 and onwards.
