Original report
System details: Framework Laptop 12 (13th Gen Intel Core), Intel i3-1315U / Raptor Lake, UHD Graphics (i915), INSYDE BIOS 03.07. Omarchy 4.0.4-1, kernel 7.2.3-arch1-3, Hyprland 0.56.2.
What's wrong
omarchy-sleep-lock.service fails on every suspend/resume cycle and has since at least Aug 15 (263 failures recorded):
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: omarchy-sleep-lock.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 20.
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: Started Lock Omarchy before suspend.
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd-inhibit[838223]: Failed to inhibit: The operation inhibition has been requested for is already running
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: omarchy-sleep-lock.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: omarchy-sleep-lock.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.The failure coincides exactly with the start of each resume from suspend. Because the unit is Restart=always with RestartSec=2, it restarts immediately afterwards and then stays idle. Net effect:
- The intended long-lived logind
delayinhibit (systemd-inhibit --what=sleep --mode=delay --who=Omarchy --why="Lock screen before suspend") is never actually held — it only fails during the sleep window and comes up after wake, so the next suspend begins with no Omarchy delay-inhibit in place. - Every wake logs a failed unit + restart-churn.
Expected: the unit starts once per graphical session, acquires the sleep inhibit, holds it, and only acts when PrepareForSleep fires — not log a FAILURE every cycle.
Steps to reproduce: start a session, suspend and wake the laptop, then check:
systemctl --user status omarchy-sleep-lock.service
journalctl --user -u omarchy-sleep-lock.service # shows exit-code=FAILURE + "Failed to inhibit ... already running"This occurs on every suspend/wake, independent of the separate kernel-level resume failures on this machine (spd5118/ucsi_acpi) — the service races logind finalizing the wake, and logind rejects the new delay inhibit with -EBUSY ("The operation inhibition has been requested for is already running") until the sleep operation has fully settled.
The offending unit: /usr/lib/systemd/user/omarchy-sleep-lock.service -> omarchy-system-sleep-monitor (which execs systemd-inhibit ... omarchy-system-sleep-lock while dbus-monitoring PrepareForSleep).

## What's wrong
`omarchy-sleep-lock.service` fails on **every** suspend/resume cycle and has since at least Aug 15 (263 failures recorded):
```
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: omarchy-sleep-lock.service: Scheduled restart job, restart counter is at 20.
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: Started Lock Omarchy before suspend.
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd-inhibit[838223]: Failed to inhibit: The operation inhibition has been requested for is already running
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: omarchy-sleep-lock.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Sep 24 02:47:18 Framework12 systemd[976]: omarchy-sleep-lock.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
```
The failure coincides exactly with the start of each resume from suspend. Because the unit is `Restart=always` with `RestartSec=2`, it restarts immediately afterwards and then stays idle. Net effect:
- The intended long-lived logind `delay` inhibit (`systemd-inhibit --what=sleep --mode=delay --who=Omarchy --why="Lock screen before suspend"`) is **never actually held** — it only fails during the sleep window and comes up after wake, so the next suspend begins with no Omarchy delay-inhibit in place.
- Every wake logs a failed unit + restart-churn.
**Expected:** the unit starts once per graphical session, acquires the sleep inhibit, holds it, and only acts when `PrepareForSleep` fires — not log a FAILURE every cycle.
**Steps to reproduce:** start a session, suspend and wake the laptop, then check:
```
systemctl --user status omarchy-sleep-lock.service
journalctl --user -u omarchy-sleep-lock.service # shows exit-code=FAILURE + "Failed to inhibit ... already running"
```
This occurs on every suspend/wake, independent of the separate kernel-level resume failures on this machine (spd5118/ucsi_acpi) — the service races logind finalizing the wake, and logind rejects the new delay inhibit with `-EBUSY` ("The operation inhibition has been requested for is already running") until the sleep operation has fully settled.
The offending unit: `/usr/lib/systemd/user/omarchy-sleep-lock.service` -> `omarchy-system-sleep-monitor` (which execs `systemd-inhibit ... omarchy-system-sleep-lock` while dbus-monitoring `PrepareForSleep`).Also reported as
