I've been slamming my head over this issue. According to previous up-voted methods: askubuntu_link1 and similarly askubuntu_link2, I enable power/wakeup to the usb device connected to my wireless mouse receiver and also attempt to create udev rules for my specific device. However, I still can't get any wakeup response from my wireless mouse upon suspend; I'm only able to wake up by opening the laptop lid and wake using the touchpad. My laptop is a Dell XPS 13 9380 with Ubuntu 18.04.

I begin:

$ grep . /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/power/wakeup

Initially yielding,

/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-7/power/wakeup:disabled    
/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-9/power/wakeup:disabled   
/sys/bus/usb/devices/5-1/power/wakeup:disabled   
/sys/bus/usb/devices/6-1.2/power/wakeup:disabled   
/sys/bus/usb/devices/6-1/power/wakeup:disabled
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1/power/wakeup:disabled
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/power/wakeup:disabled
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb3/power/wakeup:disabled
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb4/power/wakeup:disabled
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb5/power/wakeup:disabled
/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb6/power/wakeup:disabled

Finding the usb port for my wireless receiver:

$ lsusb

Bus 006 Device 004: ID 0480:a006 Toshiba America Inc External Disk 1.5TB  
Bus 006 Device 003: ID 0bda:8153 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.  
Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0424:5807 Standard Microsystems Corp.   
Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub  
Bus 005 Device 004: ID 046d:0825 Logitech, Inc. Webcam C270  
Bus 005 Device 003: ID 0bda:4014 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.

Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub    
Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub   
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub   
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 046d:c534 Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0489:e0a2 Foxconn / Hon Hai    
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0c45:6723 Microdia        
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

I identify my device ID is c534.

Find the port my device is plugged into:

$ grep c534 /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/idProduct  

/sys/bus/usb/devices/1-9/idProduct:c534

This indicates my device is plugged into bus 1, port 9.

Double-check if wakeup is enabled:

$ cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-9/power/wakeup  
disabled

Enable wakeup on port:

$ sudo sh -c 'echo "enabled" > /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-9/power/wakeup'

Check if wakeup enabled: $ cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-9/power/wakeup enabled

Upon testing the computer in suspend mode, I get no wake up.

Then, I attempt editing wakeup rules specific to my device:

$ lsusb | grep Receiver
Bus 001 Device 004: ID **046d:c534** Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver

Using device id's, I edit number 10 priority udev rules for usb port 1-9:

$ sudo nano /etc/udev/rules.d/10-wakeup.rules

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="046d", ATTRS{idProduct}=="c534" RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo enabled > /sys/bus/usb/devices/1-9/power/wakeup'"

After system restart, and checking that port 1-9 has wakeup enabled, I continue to get no response from my mouse under computer suspend. WHY??? I'm stuck.

Notice that on Dell (probably not unique to Dell) the usb is disable by default for wakeup on BIOS level. I tried and tried to run the great solutions above without any luck and then I found out the "trivial" answer of bios change.

Mouse receiver needs power

Your Unifying Receiver needs to be plugged into a USB port that has power when the machine is suspended. You can move your mouse but if the Unifying Receiver has no power nothing will happen.

From: USB PowerShare not working on XPS13 9380

  1. Make sure you actually enabled USB PowerShare in the BIOS Setup interface. On some systems it's disabled by default.

  2. Make sure you're using a port that actually supports PowerShare. Not all Dell systems have PowerShare implemented on all of their USB ports. Look for a port with a battery icon or possibly a lightning bolt icon, although the latter might cause some confusion because the 9380 also supports Thunderbolt 3, which uses a very similar lightning-style icon.

  3. On some Dell systems, PowerShare only works when the system is either shut down and on AC power, or sleeping (on either battery or AC power). Not all systems enable PowerShare while the system is fully shut down and not plugged in.

/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb1/power/wakeup also needs to be enabled.
