Bug Description
Before upgrading to 20.04 from 19.10 recently, my desktop would not automatically suspend when idle. After upgrading, it started suspending automatically.
First thing I did was try to use the graphical configurator: but this continued to suspend. Then I started investigating gsettings: it turns out that the configurator was changing org.gnome.
Unless I'm mistaken, this appears to prevented my desktop from suspending as long as I don't lock the screen. However, if I lock the screen, then it continues to suspend itself even after my command-line attempt at disabling suspend.
lpsmith@kleene:~$ gsettings list-recursively | grep -i "suspend\|sleep"

Honestly what I'd really like to do, eventually, is plug my desktop back into the usbconnection that my UPS provides, and don't suspend while on battery power, but rather hibernate or shutdown cleanly when the battery power becomes critically low. I didn't put a lot of effort into this previously, but I was never able to get this working on previous versions of ubuntu.

Did you perform reboot after updgrade? Which graphical configurator? You change suspend option from unity-control- center- >power. Note the upgrade path is not supported for Unity since it is not a official flavor. Recommend way is to re-install.
