At least in my case (laptop with Optimus) the NVidia driver is hit or miss
when going to sleep, 90% of the time the computer either doesn't suspend
correctly or has problems when returning from sleep and in several
occasions I could track it back to the graphic driver crashing.

I surely have other non-related problems (my computer is a mess), but I
wouldn't find strange that the NVidia driver crashes on suspend also in
your case. You can test it by using NVidia tools (nvidia-smi) before and
after suspend, and before and after DT crashes.

Also, if you start DT from a terminal as darktable -d opencl it will show
you debugging information related to opencl, including hopefully why it
fails.

Best regards,
Guillermo
