This bug also happens on Linux Mint 18 (Sarah) Cinnamon Edition.

The laptop is a Dell XPS Studio 1340. I'm not using an external monitor like the OP, but the laptop does not suspend when closing the lid (even though power management is set to suspend).

If I use the NVIDIA binary driver the bug does not happen (the laptop will suspend when closing the lid, as expected). For this reason I added a reference to the Nouveau driver to this report.

I believe this might be a reference to the following bug in Cinnamon:

Launchpad does not seem to link directly to github bugs, so I'm leaving the URL here in the comment section.
