I'm not sure. I'm fairly sure that there is a problem with acpi-support
for Kubuntu users here, but I don't know if it is causing your problem.
When you press the sleep button, acpid emits an event which HAL sees,
and acpid also runs /etc/acpi/sleep.sh. This script should exit without
doing anything if some other process in the users session exists to
handle the sleep event. For Gnome users, this is gnome-power-manager
(which the script checks for). I'm not familiar with what KDE uses, but
the script is looking for kpowersave or klaptopdaemon, both of which I
don't think exist. So, in your case, I think /etc/acpi/sleep.sh goes
ahead and tries to suspend the machine. In the meantime, something else
in your session is using pm-utils to suspend the machine too
(powerdevil?).

I could be talking rubbish though - I'm really not familiar with KDE or
power management in Kubuntu, but this is how I understand it to work.

It might be good if you could edit your /etc/acpi/sleep.sh and add an
'exit' just below 'DeviceConfig', and then try suspending using the
standby button (remember to back the file up so you can restore it
afterwards).

Thanks :)
