Although within the last couple days I've discovered and set hw.acpi.lid_switch_state=S3 so now I'm just closing the lid to trigger sleep (which is how I normally configure it on other OS's/DE's, and works for me since I never close the lid unless it's not in use.) On the desktop there's no suspend button so I'm still using the "zzz" shortcut there. Although as I'm writing this I noticed hw.acpi.power_button_state in acpi(4); setting this to S3 on the laptop doesn't work (but I'm not worried about it as I already have three other ways to suspend), but it works perfectly on the desktop (Asus P8B75-M motherboard.)
