Manual Sleep option not working

This Win11 option used to work fine. Now it just returns you directly to the login screen. Any ideas on how to get this working again? Many thanks.

    Gshep1 You can go to Settings > Power & sleep > Choose what the power buttons do, and make sure the "Sleep" option is selected under "Choose what the power buttons do". If it's not, click "Change plan settings" next to "Current power plan" and make sure "Sleep" is enabled.

    Windows 11 includes a built-in troubleshooter that can help resolve power issues.
    Press Win + I to open Settings.
    Go to System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters.
    Scroll down to Power and click Run.
