/etc/modeprobe.d/nvidia.conf:

# Disable Nvidia modesetting for hyprid graphics
options nvidia-drm modeset=0

# Enable dynamic power management
options nvidia NVreg_DynamicPowerManagement=0x02

# Disable GSP firmware (can cause issues on some laptops)
options nvidia NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=0

# Preserve video memory allocations across suspend/resume
options nvidia NVreg_PreserveVideoMemoryAllocations=1

# Disable S0ix power management
options nvidia NVreg_EnableS0ixPowerManagement=0

I tried the systemctl enable nvidia commands but this never fixed my problem.

What worked for me was disabling USB and THunderbolt wake:

# Disable XHCI (USB)
echo XHCI | sudo tee /proc/acpi/wakeup

# Disable TXHC (Thunderbolt)
echo TXHC | sudo tee /proc/acpi/wakeup

# Verify both are disabled
cat /proc/acpi/wakeup | grep -E "XHCI|TXHC"

Both should be *disabled - I have to use my laptop keyboard/trackpad to resume but I am fine with that so keep it in mind if you are not using a laptop.

I think that something was sending wake signals hence why I disabled those.

To make it permanent create a service for it:

/etc/systemd/system/disable-usb-wakeup.service:

[Unit]
Description=Disable USB wakeup to prevent spurious wake events
After=multi-user.target

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'echo XHCI > /proc/acpi/wakeup; echo TXHC > /proc/acpi/wakeup'

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

sudo systemctl enable disable-usb-wakeup.service
sudo systemctl start disable-usb-wakeup.service
