Power Manager settings don't work in 4.3

Has anyone else experienced this? In Qubes 4.3, the power manager settings don’t do anything.

If I enable presentation mode, it does nothing and the system still sleeps after some time. If I set the option to do nothing on lid close, it still puts the system to sleep when the lid is closed.

I’ve tested it on a ThinkPad X1 Extreme Gen 1, a Dell Latitude 7400, and an HP EliteBook B40 G8.

It doesn’t seem to be a hardware compatibility issue.

The power manager settings worked fine on all of these systems in Qubes 4.2.
