Thanks. Yes it seems as if it is the same issue.

I don't have hardware to test on, however when I was given temporary access to
some I found that

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/logind-handle-lid-switch

returned true. And setting it to false with

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -p /xfce4-power-manager/logind-handle-lid-switch -s false

fixed the issue.

However, Michaela said that didn't make any difference for her.

Can you try?

Thanks.
