hibernate on lid close not working (suspend does though!)

I am able to successfully suspend using:

$ systemctl suspend

I get this:

$ journalctl -b -u systemd-suspend
-- Logs begin at Tue 2015-07-21 00:21:08 PDT, end at Thu 2015-08-20 11:43:18 PDT
Aug 20 11:41:27 macbook-pro systemd[1]: Starting Suspend...
Aug 20 11:41:27 macbook-pro systemd-sleep[1660]: Suspending system...
Aug 20 11:41:33 macbook-pro systemd[1]: Started Suspend.

and hibernate similarly

$ systemctl hibernate

$ journalctl -b -u systemd-hibernate
-- Logs begin at Tue 2015-07-21 00:21:08 PDT, end at Thu 2015-08-20 11:50:58 PDT
Aug 20 11:42:03 macbook-pro systemd[1]: Starting Hibernate...
Aug 20 11:42:03 macbook-pro systemd-sleep[2316]: Suspending system...
Aug 20 11:43:00 macbook-pro systemd[1]: Started Hibernate.

But when I close the laptop lid, it does not hibernate (if that's how I have it set up in xfce-power-manager.) Instead I get this:

$ journalctl -b -u systemd-hibernate
-- Logs begin at Tue 2015-07-21 00:21:08 PDT, end at Thu 2015-08-20 11:53:58 PDT
Aug 20 11:42:03 macbook-pro systemd[1]: Starting Hibernate...
Aug 20 11:42:03 macbook-pro systemd-sleep[2316]: Suspending system...

BTW, if I then try to manually hibernate afterwards, I get this:

$ systemctl hibernate
Failed to execute operation: There's already a shutdown or sleep operation in progress

Lastly, if I configure xfce-power-manager to suspend on lid close, it works just fine.

Can someone please help me out?
