This sounds a lot like the following known bug:

https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-bugs&m=148447759618744&w=2
https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-bugs&m=149005961017985&w=2

I work around it by switching to a different virtual console before
suspending.

This is the command I use to lock my X session, switch vts, and sleep:

    xlock -startCmd 'wsconsctl -f /dev/ttyCcfg display.focus=0 && zzz'

For that to work, I need to have access to /dev/ttyCcfg. I added
/dev/ttyCcfg to /etc/X11/xenodm/{Give,Take}Console (handled the same
way as the other devices files in those scripts) to solve that. I can't
comment on the security implications of doing that.
