Description
On Mint 21.3 64 bit with cinnamon-session 6.0.1
Issue
With any program inhibiting sleep running (like Rhythmbox playing a track), the "Sleep" button is now missing from the dialog.
This makes it hard to put a PC to sleep with an unknown program inhibiting sleep.
Steps to reproduce
Play a song with Rhythmbox, click on "Shutdown" in Cinnamon menu.
Expected behaviour
Mint 21.2 displayed a popup listing the apps preventing the PC from going to sleep, and offered options.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on Mint 21.3 with a program such as Rhythmbox inhibiting sleep, then trace the cinnamon-session shutdown dialog and its sleep-inhibition handling. Compare the behavior with Mint 21.2. Done means the Sleep option remains available and the dialog presents the programs preventing sleep, as expected.
