Considering that I am seeing some people have the same issue with a new/replacement board is making me think it might be a BIOS firmware issue rather than hardware related?
The chances of 2 boards having the same issue is very unlikely, unless Asus suddenly forgot how to make proper motherboards.
My dark hero has the problem but otherwise works perfectly. I have enabled S4 + S5 in the bios which erradicates any start up problem. I can use Hibernate/Sleep without any issues, ever, as long as that setting is turned on.
I hope ASUS can finally understand the problem and address it !

it is 100% a Bios issue this bios 3801 is buggy from start to the end. in voltage in all and we get over months no bios update its really an unbelievable cheek
a friend got this issue after updating to the new bios, with the org bios that was delivered it wasn't there over months.
Since 2021/08/12 no update lool

Not sure. I am still running 3601 (initial version when I got the new board). Haven't updated it.

I looked into this, being intrigued by NuadaXXX's response.
I tried turning off AURA in the bios. When I turned on the "AURA OFF" setting, my computer would shut down after saving to CMOS and NOT respond to the power button anymore afterwards. This was exactly the same behavior like when it fails to wake from sleep. Motherboard LED's on etc, no response from keyboard/power button to wake from sleep. And wouldn't work anymore until powercycling the whole PSU as mentioned in this thread many times.
Figured I had found a 'connection' here.
So following that I tried setting AURA to STEALTH mode which turns off ALL lighting after POST (including the POST LED and status leds etc.) and that actually FIXED my problem.
So thank you very much NuadaXXX for this idea!!
I haven't had a single problem with waking from sleep ever since. Even after sleeping for extended periods of 8-12 hours.
Just for consistency/reproduction sake; I have also enabled the S4+ S5 ERP feature, but that didn't work actually change anything for me. However, it's still enabled for me right now.
So to reproduce my "fix" you would have to enable that S4+S5 ERP feature and set your AURA setting to "Stealth" mode.
Hope this can be fixed in a future bios update if this turns out to fix the issue for more people!
Try it for yourself and spread the word!

Hi Aalz0r,
And thank you for your post.
Have you tried without ErP enabled?
If I ask, it is because with this option enabled, it is impossible to benefit from the WoL functionality.

I am guessing the ErP function isn't actually necessary for the fix to work, but I could be wrong. So if it doesn't work for you with it off, try with it on S4+S5.

Hi Aalz0r,
If you take a look at my earlier post (and others) you can see that we are experiencing the problem specifically also with Stealth mode enabled (and any other LED mode).
Since the issue is so sporadic, I have found myself thinking I have a 'eureka moment' where I've discovered the important BIOS setting -- only to discover the problem returning later. Sometimes it can go for 30 reboots/sleeps before recurrence of the problem, sometimes it appears after just a few (<5) -- but so far, I do not find a single BIOS setting that reliability stops the failure on 3601 or 3801.
For the record, I've also reproduced the problem on different operating systems (Windows and Linux) using completely different software stacks. Same problem.
