Some recent update to unstable seems to have broken Xfce4 for me



Hi,

Some recent update to unstable seems to have broken Xfce4 for me: I
can't suspend the the machine anymore. When I try the keyboard shortcut
I've configured (that has worked for years), I get an error popup
window:

Received error while trying to log out
GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.InvalidArgs:
Type of message, "(yb)", does not match expected type "(b")

(I've googled this message and found other references to it, but no
clear solution / interpretation:

When I try the little "sleepy moon" icon, I get a different popup window:

Failed to run action "Suspend"
GDBus.Error:org.xfce.SessionManager.Error.Failed: Failed to lock the screen.

Any ideas?
