The issue I'm having is that anytime I have it initiate any of the
states listed above (and all variants), I can never pull it out of
sleep. Resume doesn't happen when pressing on the keyboard or moving
the mouse. In fact, even pressing the power button won't rez the
system to resume. Funny enough the CPU fan will still spin in all
sleep states (except hibernate) but no other fans do.

My partner’s computer has a similar issue. Based on some reading around
the subject the kernel is crashing, most likely in some driver, while
putting the computer to sleep.

doesn’t suspend the computer.

 It never occurred to me to look at the kernel. Thanks for sharing. I'll try that angle.

Depends on your distro. For example, openSUSE Leap had a bug with those symptoms about a month ago, the kernel would crash on restore from hibernation. A recent update solved it.
