Don't have any specific experience with your hardware but you could try
these two things:
1. Try values of 3 and 5 instead of 1 to echo to /proc/acpi/sleep
"1" isn't meant to suspend.
2. Switch to a text console before you use the echo
3. There have been some problems solved by setting the swappiness
value to 100 before trying to suspend:
echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
