This happens on my machine, too. It could be caused by the fix for this
bug:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/22522

in gpm-manager.c at the top of idle_change_cb():

        if (manager->priv->lid_is_closed) {
                gpm_debug ("lid is closed, so we are ignoring idle state 
changes");
                return;
        }

As far i as i'ved looked into this , this means that changes in the idle
state are ignored when the laptop lid is closed. So the sleep is never
happens.

Ive got hardware blanking on the lid closing so , i just commented the
if statement out and sleep works for me when the laptop lid is closed
now. I am using dapper (but i noticed this if statement is still in
upstream)
