.... and nothing else seemed to happen, system did not go to sleep after pressing sleep button once.

This is the first time I see this bug.
Sleep button/xfce-power-manager used to work flawlessly before.

I will try to reproduce this bug, after filing this report 
(and running backups...) since this is my only computer.
