I looked in the gnome-power-manager section of gconf-editor again and what did I find?
The lock screen boxes were now all checked.
I unchecked the box for Suspend and then tried manual suspend.

Problem solved.

But why oh why do we have "lock screen" settings at different levels? It was challenging enough with one place to find by googling.
History, I guess.

The desktop folks need a better human interface to take care of both the desktop level and the ACPI level in a single operation to ensure consistency.
