Bug description
When I try to wake up my PC, there's no screen signal.
Steps to reproduce
- Suspend the PC manually or let it do it automatically
- Press a key on the keyboard or the PC's power button
Expected behavior
The login screen should appear
Additional information
I believe the issue appeared after an update a week ago, as I haven't done anything out of the ordinary with my PC.
However I couldn't reproduce the issue on my laptop, only my desktop is affected.
Changing the video cable didn't fix the issue. I use the latest GPU driver (version 575), but I'm unable to figure out if that could be the issue, as I get an error if I try to install an older driver (dependency issues).
The 1070 is my only GPU on my PC.

Research direction
Start by reproducing suspend and wake-up on Mint 22.1 with Cinnamon 6.4.8, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070, and driver 575. Compare the affected desktop's behavior with the reported steps; done means the login screen returns after manual or automatic suspend.
