My apologies: I'd just found this bug after searching for the reason my laptop would suspend after ~30 seconds whenever it was plugged into a dock or external monitor with the lid closed after upgrading to 15.04, and did not read closely enough because the symptoms were so similar (and I was so frustrated). Thanks for the nudge.

This is wrong in the above situation where the announced lid switch does not exist or isn't actually closed.
