Hyprlock doesn't start properly after returning from Sleep

My Hyprlock 9/10 times will only display partially on top of my desktop and is unclickable and nothing else works . Trying to fix the Hyprlock via the commands that are done when Hyprlock shows Oops error doesn't work either . I am attaching my hypridle and hyprlock configs below

general {
    lock_cmd = pidof hyprlock || hyprlock 
    before_sleep_cmd = loginctl lock-session
    after_sleep_cmd = hyprctl dispatch 'hl.dsp.dpms({ action = "enable" })'
    inhibit_sleep = 3
}

listener {
    timeout = 300                                         
    on-timeout = [ "$(upower -i "$(upower -e | grep BAT)" | grep '^ *state' | awk '{print $2}')" = "discharging" ] && asusctl leds set off
    on-resume = asusctl leds set high     
}
listener {
    timeout = 300                                         
    on-timeout = brightnessctl -s && [ "$(upower -i "$(upower -e | grep BAT)" | grep '^ *state' | awk '{print $2}')" = "discharging" ] && brightnessctl set 0
    on-resume = brightnessctl --restore   

}
listener {
    timeout = 900
    on-timeout = [ "$(upower -i "$(upower -e | grep BAT)" | grep '^ *state' | awk '{print $2}')" = "discharging" ] && loginctl lock-session
    on-resume = brightnessctl --restore
}

listener {
    timeout = 1200                                                     
    on-timeout = [ "$(upower -i "$(upower -e | grep BAT)" | grep '^ *state' | awk '{print $2}')" = "discharging" ] && hyprctl dispatch dpms off 
    on-resume = hyprctl dispatch 'hl.dsp.dpms({ action = "enable" })' && brightnessctl -r 
}

listener {
    timeout = 1800
    on-timeout = [ "$(upower -i "$(upower -e | grep BAT)" | grep '^ *state' | awk '{print $2}')" = "discharging" ] && systemctl suspend-then-hibernate 
    on-resume = brightnessctl --restore
}

Nvidia?

If so, see:

• https://github.com/hyprwm/hyprlock/issues/1030

Also

• https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/discussions/15590

And peruse the slew of fail-on-suspend/resume bugs in hyprlock git:

• https://github.com/hyprwm/hyprlock/issu … r%20resume

Re: Hyprlock doesn't start properly after returning from Sleep

I think the issue is happening because of latest Hyprland version . I should wait till next update
