I have a similar problem on 18.04 on a Lenovo V330.
Suspend works fine without external monitor, but no matter what I do it's
inhibited when its connected. I want it to suspend always.
$ grep -i lid /etc/systemd/logind.conf
#HandleLidSwitch=suspend
HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend
#LidSwitchIgnoreInhibited=yes
$ dconf read
/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power/lid-close-suspend-with-external-monitor
true
$ systemd-inhibit --list --mode=block
<snip>
Who: gdm (UID 121/gdm, PID 5935/gsd-power)
What: handle-lid-switch
Why: Multiple displays attached
Mode: block
Who: gaute (UID 1000/gaute, PID 1713/gsd-power)
What: handle-lid-switch
Why: Multiple displays attached
Mode: block
Only the second of these goes away when monitor is unplugged, but lid
close still works.
This is possibly due to a bug in gsd-power which is mentioned in the following
guthub issues.
