Actually, I was closing the lid which set sleep state to S1.  I changed
to so it would be S3, and that made some what of a difference, but the
overall problem is the same: the laptop never wakes back up.  After a
"resume" I can no longer see the display or ping the laptop.  However,
waking from S3 restored USB and keyboard functionality.
