Console switch workaround is reliable and prevents possible hangs on suspend when screen locking is enabled.
It's implemented with a simple script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/99switch_to_vt1:
#!/bin/sh # Possible workaround for bug: # https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1301601 # # Switch to a VT before suspending and back after resume
case "$1" in resume|thaw) /bin/chvt 7 ;; suspend|hibernate) /bin/chvt 1 ;; esac
