Laptop not suspending on lid close

I have an Acer Swift 3 sf314-42, and I can't get it to suspend on lid close.
I have the following settings in my logind.conf file:

HandleLidSwitch=suspend
HandleLidSwitchExternalPower=suspend
HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend

It's running GNOME, and in the tweaks app, I have "Suspend when laptop lid is closed" enabled.
tlp is installed and enabled using the default settings.
Suspend on lid close works with Manjaro and Windows, so this isn't a hardware issue. Any ideas?

What gets logged in the journal when you close the lid?

Re: Laptop not suspending on lid close

Does removing TLP fix the problem?

What does this say

systemd-inhibit

8 inhibitors listed.

I've tried without TLP before and that doesn't fix it.

Re: Laptop not suspending on lid close

So does the laptop suspend at all?

Try

systemctl suspend

Or

# tee /sys/power/state <<!
mem
!

Re: Laptop not suspending on lid close

Yes, it does suspend when I use that command or click the power button. Actually, I just noticed that it does suspend on lid close while being charged but not when it's unplugged.

Re: Laptop not suspending on lid close

It looks like I didn't read the wiki carefully. There is a second file '/etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/*.conf' where I set 'HandleLidSwitch=suspend' and now it works as it should. Thanks for the help!
