Bug description

I am using the provided systemd service to lock screen on laptop lid close. I also use an external monitor, and I have keybinds in i3wm to switch between laptop screen and monitor.

If I disconnect the monitor and then close the laptop to enter suspend, upon resume, I just see a black screen and I am locked out of the system. Blindly typing my password doesn't work, none of i3wm keybinds work (so I can't switch back to built-in display); hard reboot is the only way forward.

Does this also happen if you use i3lock-color alone with just a color? If yes I suggest to create an upstream issue there - otherwise I would need more output/logs/service-config to help further.

Edit: From #358 it would be interesting which kernel-version you have and if below 6.0 you could test with a version >= 6.0

I have also experienced this issue today. I locked my screen using the keybindings, but I was unable to unlock it again by typing my password.

I am running i3wm in Arch Linux (kernel-version version 6.1.32-1-lts). I installed betterlockscreen through the AUR.

- betterlockscreen: 4.0.4-2
