Both options for battery and mains should be set at 'Sleep' - Click the down arrow on both options and select the 'do nothing' option - Click 'Save changes' - and you're all done.

Depending on the hardware that Linux is running on, lifting the lid (of a laptop), pushing the power button (if the device is in a very low power mode), or simply providing input to the device. Sometimes, due to the resume image that is stored to the hard drive becoming corrupted, it is not possible to resume a session from sleep. In this case, you will have to hard reboot the device.
