[Bug 1839900] [NEW] Power button action not working

[Douglas Silva]

Public bug reported:

I've configured it so that the system would suspend after pressing the
power button. This does not happen.

How is it reproducible?
It started after updating from Ubuntu 18.04.2 to 18.04.3. New packages, new kernel, new bug. On Ubuntu 19.04, this has been reproducible since its release. This is also reproducible on other distributions with the GNOME desktop.

This is exclusive to the GNOME desktop. No other desktop I've tried has
issues with the power button action.

Ubuntu 18.04.3
Kernel 5.0.0-23-generic
GNOME 3.28.2

See attached logs. Near the end of it I attempted to make the system
suspend by repeatedly pressing the power button, as configured in GNOME
Settings > Power > When the power button is pressed.
