Wakey Wakey

Back story -
My laptop, a Star Lab Lite Mk 2, is connected to my 22" monitor with a HDMI Cable into a 7in1 hub to the laptop's USB C port. My wireless keyboard and mouse run of a dongle in one of the USB 3 Ports.

The issue.
Before going outside to have my dinner, I used Super Button (or windows on this keyboard) and L to lock the screen. When I got back I could not wake up the laptop. No matter how I tapped the wireless keyboard and moved the wireless mouse it would not wake up. Even opening the laptop's lid did nothing. I had no choice but to do a hard shutdown with the power button. Any ideas?

I jut use the lid close to end each session - works for me.

The lid is always closed whilst connected to the keyboard/mouse and monitor.
