Lets try to debug the actual problem (Power Manager settings are ignored when closing laptop lid).
Please restore the default setup by reverting changes to /etc/systemd/logind.conf. and deleting /home/<user>/.config/xfce4/xfconf /xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-power-manager.xml. After doing so and relogging once, open a terminal window and run the following commands to restart the power manager in debug mode: killall xfce4-power-manager xfce4-power-manager --debug Now close and re-open the lid to trigger the bug and attach the terminal output to this report. Once you have closed the terminal window, you may want to launch "xfce4-power-manager" again to restore its functionality.
