XFCE4 with i3lock does not lock the screen on suspend (sleep)

Hi,

I have XFCE4 and my screen locker is i3lock, I use a laptop.
I have followed the doc about how to configure xfce to run i3lock as screen locker: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xf … the_screen
In the power manager GUI I checked the option to lock the screen on suspend (as explained in the doc)

If I set the power manager to lock the screen when I flip down the screen of my laptop then I open it, i3lock was launched correctly.
If I set it for suspend when the screen is flipped down and I test again, i3lock is not launched and the screen is not locked after wake up from suspend state.

How can I fix this ?

Note: I use i3lock-color
