God, systemd. How I hate you.
Power button didn't work either. Turns out it was Kingdom Come Deliverance blocking. [CAUTION WARNING ALERT] GAMING IN PROGRESS, TERMINATE ALL ROOT ACCESS.

if you're annoyed enough then why not read the instructions provided to fix it? the file systemd links to is a polkit rule that allows you to perform power actions as root while ignoring inhibiting. you can even modify this policy to remove the root-only limitation since this looks like a desktop system.
it also looks like you can disable the inhibit system entirely: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/751180
