Public bug reported: The Power settings in unity-control-center provide the option to set events for "lid close" triggers. Setting this option to 'suspend' does nothing with an up to date Xenial installation. Running "sudo journalctl -b -u systemd-logind" shows that lid open and close events are properly detected, there is just no action associated with them.
