I have been having this problem since I started using CachyOS about 2 months ago. I have set the system to suspend after a period of time. When it does, the monitor, keyboard, and mouse will turn off, but the motherboard stays on. RGB stays on, fans still spinning, but everything else is off. Hitting any key on the board or mouse will not wake the computer. It doesn’t do it all the time, but it does most of the time. Even weirder, it’ll sometimes do it when choosing to shutdown! Everything turns off except the motherboard. The only way to turn it back on is to long press the power button to shut the motherboard down and press power again. Motherboard bios is the latest from ASUS, I’m using an AMD GPU, I even outright replaced the motherboard entirely, nothing worked. Google searching the problem doesn’t help. I don’t think it’s only a Cachy problem either. It does the same thing on Linux Mint, ZorinOS, pretty much any Linux distro. Any ideas? Thanks
