Battery completely drained, system not working properly?

Hello all. Recently, my laptop completely drained its battery as I forgot to plug it in, and upon rebooting a couple problems seem to arise.

1. the system seems to hang at the lenovo screen for much longer

2. lid auto close does not seem to be recognized

3. the audio does not seem to be output

Before the laptop shut off, I had my headphones plugged in the audio jack and was taking notes in vim with a video playing in firefox. I have a Thinkpad t480s with an Intel Core i5-8350U. I tried doing some poking around for myself and here's what I found. After running systemd-analyze blame my output was

   2ms sys-kernel-config.mount
   2ms rtkit-daemon.service
   1ms tmp.mount

I am using pamixer to control my audio and I am able to control is however there is still no output to my laptop speakers. I am able to control the audio level and select which sinks and sources I want. As for the lid not being detected, I checked the logind.conf file, and nothing had changed. However, I am able to manually suspend using systemctl suspend. I am not using a traditional desktop environment as I am using dwm and starting it with the startx command. When I first boot into my tty I get xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O operations (Operation not permitted) and after some looking around, I can't seem to figure out what causes this error. Here is my Xorg.0.log file. Honestly I am very lost as to what could be causing these issues and I would much appreciate if someone could help me out. Please let me know what additional information is needed. Thank you all!

Re: Battery completely drained, system not working properly?

Did you go into BIOS and check the settings, run some diagnostics?
The first problem (long time on Lenovo boot screen) points away from Linux.
I also had sound problems after resume on my thinkpad when I tried to use the Intel RST (rapid start technology), so you might consider disabling that completely.
