anacron.service has ConditionACPower=true We suspect that the ACPI module loading in acpid causes that condition to fail (temporarily). What is the MODULES parameter in /etc/default/acpid set to? If you comment that out (which is the default), i.e. no modules are loaded by acpid, do you still encounter the issue?
