You can see keycode 213 (XF86Suspend) being "grabbed" during initialisation (first few rows).

I pressed the button at time 18:24:00, nothing was generated in the log as you can see.

Compared to that, I pressed the power button at 18:25:00, selected suspend from the menu, and then resumed at 18:25:20.

So looks to me that the suspend key is intercepted before GPM gets it (?).
