This bug causes my laptop to get really hot, especially in the summer, because the screen is acting as a radiator cooking my laptop. The xrandr workaround isn't working for me because I'm using the proprietary nvidia drivers. Maybe there's a way to disable any attached USB mouse or keyboard when the lid closes, which will prevent the screen from being woken up? that would work I think.
