Sleep Issues on Bazzite KDE – Fans & RGB Stay On, No Display After Wake

Hi, I'm experiencing some sleep-related issues on my system running Bazzite KDE:

When I put my PC to sleep, the CPU fans stay on, and every 20–30 seconds the monitor briefly shows the lock screen before going back off. This does not happen on Windows, so I’m wondering if it’s a known issue or something misconfigured.

If the PC stays in sleep for longer periods (e.g., 20–30 minutes), the fans and keyboard RGB remain active, but when I try to wake the system, I get no display output at all. I have to do a hard reboot using the reset button on my PC.

Is this a known issue on Bazzite KDE? Could it be GPU driver-related or some kernel config? I’d appreciate any help or suggestions to fix this.
