[Solved] Frozen/blank screen after sleep (Hyprland, Nvidia Laptop)

> Edit 2026-01-07:
For anyone with same or similar problem, I was able to fix pretty much everything by disabling optimus in BIOS (switch GPU mode from optimus to discrete only);
Setting AQ_DRM_DEVICES fixes some issues and generates different ones; after trying every combination I gave up - only discrete GPU seems to be best solution.

Hi, I'm having problems with suspend on Hyprland (Laptop - Intel CPU, NVidia RTX 4060 GPU).

After waking up from sleep screen turns on, but it's stuck on one frame.
I can interact with system - open terminal with keybinds, etc. - and I can escape frozen screen by switching to a different tty or typing in 'hyprctl dispatch exit'.

It's only happening when I'm not connected to an external display (I usually use it with built-in display off, only on external, unless I'm not home - issues happen here).

# Might be important -  my env. variables in Hyprland's config
env = __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME,nvidia
env = GBM_BACKEND,nvidia-drm
env = LIBVA_DRIVER_NAME,nvidia
env = AQ_DRM_DEVICES,/dev/dri/card1:/dev/dri/card2
env = __GL_GSYNC_ALLOWED,1
env = NVD_BACKEND,direct
env = __GL_VRR_ALLOWED,0
env = PROTON_ENABLE_NGX_UPDATER,1
env = MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND,1

I have tried a lot of stuff, both from Arch wiki and other forums, but nothing was working for me (also there aren't many cases of frozen frame, usually it's black screen, etc.).

Also, (maybe needed) informations:
- Hyprland 0.51.1-6
- GPU - Nvidia RTX 4060 Mobile
- Linux 6.17.4-arch2-1
