Same issue:

Acer Revo R3600 (S3 Power Mode)
XBMCbuntu (Eden)
Clean build booting from USB Flash Drive
CyberLink Remote Control (with correct key mapping)

Clean build works OK and if I hit the power button on my remote or use the menu, the box powers down (shutdown) OK. If I then use the menu to suspend it suspends correctly and wakes up on remote. If I set the power option in XBMC setting to suspend rather than shutdown I get this same flicker and nothing happens. I have to put the power setting back to shutdown, reboot the XBMC and the box powers off OK, but it no longer suspends from the menu. So it seems to break it when you change the setting in the power options in XBMC.

My old 10.1 build works fine with suspend and wake up on remote so this is the only thing holding me back from upgrading.

I had the same problem, but after reading the second comment I tried something crazy and fixed it.

1) Change the power setting to suspend
2) Reboot
3) Profit

ASRock ION3D 152D
XBMC 11 Eden release
Harmony One Remote

Found the following in "/var/log/pm-suspend.log" (This is only the end part as it fails):

This has fixed my suspend issue and hopefully not broken anything else!!!

I got the bad suspend after updating “/etc/lirc/hardware.conf”

Bad Suspend:
Unloading lirc kernel modules
ERROR: Module ir_lirc_codec does not exist in /proc/modules
ERROR: Module lirc_dev does not exist in /proc/modules
/etc/pm/sleep.d/99lirc-resume suspend suspend: Returned exit code 1.
Fri Apr 6 08:35:17 BST 2012: Inhibit found, will not perform suspend

Good Suspend:
Unloading lirc kernel modules
/etc/pm/sleep.d/99lirc-resume suspend suspend: success.
Fri Apr 6 08:25:17 BST 2012: performing suspend


In “/etc/pm/sleep.d/99lirc-resume” I commented out the following lines:

. /usr/lib/pm-utils/functions
case "$1" in
hibernate|suspend)
/etc/init.d/lirc stop
echo "Unloading lirc kernel modules"
# rmmod ir-lirc-codec
# rmmod lirc_dev
;;
thaw|resume)
echo "Loading lirc kernel modules"
# modprobe ir-lirc-codec
# modprobe lirc_dev
/etc/init.d/lirc start
;;
*)
;;
esac
exit $?

Thanks for the info.
I had the same problem but adding the lirc_xbox module for the old XBOX DVD Dongle \ remote to the rmmod and the modprobe did the trick
Thanks again!

I had this exact problem as well. I have an addesso remote which work much better with the HAMA MCE Client than with lirc. SO I installed the HAMA client, and uninstalled lirc. Then I guess when kodi tried to suspend, it tried to stop lirc, which wasn't there. Commenting out the above lines mentioned above solved my problem as well.
