Systemd-logind suspends the system when logging in with an external monitor connected

Used distribution

Fedora 39

Linux kernel version used

6.6.13-200.fc39.x86_64

CPU architectures issue was seen on

x86_64

Component

systemd-logind

Expected behaviour you didn't see

Logind should wait until the session is up and running before doing power management tasks. In the case of Plasma, power management is taken care of by powerdevil, which disables the logind handling of the same thing and by default does not suspend the system when the lid is closed and an external monitor is connected

Unexpected behaviour you saw

When logging in with the laptop lid closed and an external monitor connected, the system suspends before the session is started.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Connect external monitor and keyboard to a laptop, and log in from sddm
