Bug Description

Closing laptop (HP-ProBook-6470b) lid lights go out and appears to sleep.

Opening lid displays last desktop & window contents, mouse cursor does move around but screen cannot be interacted with.

Then screen will flash repeatedly, 10 times or so.

Closing lid , waiting for sleep again, and reopening lid results in a login screen as expected.
