[Solved] Frozen screen after after waking from sleep (Hyprland+Nvidia)

Edit:
After some a bit more searching I have decided to try out env variables suggested on Hyperland's NVidia page - using these has fixed the issue. I think that

AQ_DRM_DEVICES

caused the problems - my wild, uneducated guess is that Hyprland wasn't detecting d-GPU at first, so it was choosing i-GPU, but then after the d-GPU was turning on and taking the display, the rendering wasn't getting passed to it, which resulted in working computer with frozen screen.
I will have to check if this setup is working correctly with external gpu, but I assume it should be fixed.

TLDR.:
Use env variables from Hyprland's NVidia page. Amen.

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
