sometimes fails to suspend when I close the lid

[offby1]

I close the lid, I wait a while, and I expect to hear the fan shut off, but it doesn't. So I open the lid, and I see the screen is in text mode (as opposed to displaying X), and there's some message at the top saying something about Emacs. But that screen clears very quickly and I can never read what it says.

Then when I unlocked the screen, I noticed that my Emacs was hung for about a minute, but other programs worked OK.
