Hello everyone,
I am a new arch user. After installing and configuring ARCH to my liking, I found that my Touchscreen on ThinkPad Yoga (ELAN USB TOUCH) worked out of the box on ARCH (I'm using GNOME GUI w. XORG) but once I hibernate my machine, upon waking it the touchscreen does not function. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you! And, the sensitivity returns once I restart my machine. GIven this is not an issue on the Windows partition, I know this is isolated to software but don't have the expertise to move forward.

Just fix this issue today. I was having the same issue with XPS 13 9343 . Found that hibernation / X was disabling the touchscreen and not enabling it after resume. Added the following script:
/etc/pm/sleep.d/99touchscreen
#!/bin/sh
#
# 99touchscreen: suspend/wakeup Touchscreen input device
case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
/usr/bin/xinput set-prop "ELAN Touchscreen" "Device Enabled" 0
;;
thaw|resume)
/usr/bin/xinput set-prop "ELAN Touchscreen" "Device Enabled" 1
;;
*) exit $NA
;;
esac
Had to manually disable the touchscreen or closing the lid would not start hibernation. Check out Arch Touchscreen Wiki to find the name of your touchscreen using xinput.
