With kernel 5.16.7, I did not initially have the above problem, but then, the machine would not hibernate. Would try to do so, shut down nm-applet and then reconnect (without it even going down -- screen shutting off at all). I had this problem earlier too.

Upon doing a reboot, I got the above behavior in toto (except no chromium-browse and no pipewire in the Waiting for process system-shutdown, etc).

Now I have done dnf  downgrade my kernel (and was taken to 5.14.10). So far, it has done two rounds of sound, and hibernated and come back once. I will observe a bit more and report on how things go with this kernel.

Many thanks and best,
Ranjan
