Boot up

On my Mac Book Pro (Intel, 2020) it is set up to boot when the lid is opened. I updated to Big Sur 11.5.1. Since update the chime no longer sounds when the lid is opened and the boot process starts. Also I noticed if I shut down the computer but don't close the lid I can get it to reboot by pressing any key or tapping the trackpad. Is any of this normal? Should the computer boot by pressing any key?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 11.5

Yes this is normal.


Log out, sleep, wake, restart, or shut down your Mac - Apple ...
