For quite some time now, KDE has intermittently been unable to go to sleep. It will either go to a black screen with the cursor still showing, and the computer running, or it will show a half frozen sddm looking screen with the computer still running. The computer, in both cases, will be wholly unresponsive, and the only way to get out of it is to forcefully shutdown the PC by, for example, holding the power button.

Has anyone else been having this issue?

    I switched to KDE from Gnome back in late April, or early May. As far as I am aware, I have had this issue since I’ve been on KDE.

      ah, okay. so in your experience, it has never worked right with KDE on your computer.

        As far as I can remember, yeah. If it hasn’t been the entire time, then, at the very least, it was very soon after switching to KDE.
