Root FS mounted RO after resuming

On a newly installed system the root filesystem is mounted read-only when resuming from hibernation. I've never come across this behaviour before and I'm not sure where to start trouble shooting.

This is what I do

1. start up computer
2. verify that `/` is mounted RW
3. close lid
4. open lid
5. when running `mount` it looks like `/` still is RW, but if I run `touch foo` it fails (after a considerable time), and running `mount` after that shows that `/` is RO

I've tried remounting RW using `mount -o remount,rw /`, but that failed. I also can't run `dmesg` to see if there are any errors reported there. I've also added `resume` to the list of hooks in `/etc/mkinitcpio.conf` (and run `mkinitcpio -P`) but that made no difference.

I'm not sure where to start looking for the cause, so any suggestions are welcome.
