During forced suspend, applications are block because they are frozen. When an event occurs, the application is notified somehow. But it can't respond because it is frozen. Hence the event remains sitting in a kernel queue and the system goes ahead and suspends anyway. The application doesn't get thawed until the system wakes up at some indefinite time in the future.
