One other note, it appears that gsd-power might be blocking the suspend:

And this related bug https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/7137


In the gnome power settings, on 16.04 there was a toggle to have it perform suspend with the lid closed while docked or while an external monitor was connected. That option is now gone.

Title:
  Notebook doesn't suspend when lid is closed after update to 16.04

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My notebook does not suspend after upgrading from 15.10 to 16.04.

  According to system settings the notebook should suspend when lid is
  closed but actually this does not happen. Instead it continues to run
  as if nothing had happened.

  With the previous versions of ubuntu (14.04-15.10) everything worked
  fine.

  My System: HP Pavilion dv7.
