Public bug reported: Important: This problem appeared after upgrading my Ubuntu installation to 25.10 (Questing Quokka).
Description: Playing YouTube video via Google Chrome (current stable version 141.0.7390.76) inhibits suspend even after playback has stopped. Cinnamon `Inhibit` applet shows that `/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable` is inhibiting power management. If I hover the mouse cursor over `/usr/bin/google-chrome-stable` in the Inhibit apple then the inhibit reasons are `Video Wake Lock` and `Playing audio`. This stuck inhibition can only be removed by closing Google Chrome. Workaround: The problem can be temporarily worked around by downgrading the `cinnamon-session` and `cinnamon-session-common` packages to their respective Ubuntu 25.04 versions (6.4.0-1) and restarting Cinnamon (logout/re-login). Potential patches (unverified): The `cinnamon-session` GitHub repository has two inhibit related patches that are missing in Ubuntu 25.10's `cinnamon-session` (6.4.1-1): 1) https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-session/commit/8042c7f4756773b32e30f902d2cb05c865b9f6d7 2) https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-session/commit/28b5ebc18c744e1c79efbaa8d6b3e91bdad2e57e ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 25.10 Package: cinnamon-session 6.4.1-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.17.0-5.5-generic 6.17.0-rc7 Uname: Linux 6.17.0-5-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.33.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: pass CurrentDesktop: X-Cinnamon Date: Sat Oct 11 16:49:49 2025 InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-06-26 (1568 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 21.04 "Hirsute Hippo" - Release amd64 (20210420) SourcePackage: cinnamon-session UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: cinnamon-session (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug questing ** Description changed: Important: This problem appeared after upgrading my Ubuntu installation to 25.10 (Questing Quokka).
