Macbook Pro M1 Keyboard Does Not Light-up After Sleep

Hi - I have a MacBook Pro M1 and if it goes to sleep for several days and I open the laptop, the keyboard does not light up. I have to restart or put it to sleep again for the keyboard backlight to turn back on. Any suggestions? Thanks!

MacBook air's keyboard and trackpad stopped working after wake up It's a 2020 M1 Air. When it goes to sleep, the keyboard and trackpad is unresponsive while wake up. Each time I need to restart. Currently I set it not to sleep. Does that cause any problem on hardware? And what's the solution of this annoying issue? Changing the logic board? How much does it cost? My warranty is over!

Macbook Air M2 - Keyboard & Touchpad doent work after Sleep I have a Macbook Air M2 (2022) & OS - Ventura 13.2 (22D49). Whenever I shut my laptop screen or the laptop wakes up from sleep, the keyboard & trackpad stop working. I have to force shut the laptop & restart it. The keyboard backlight also shuts off. It's a very weird problem and I cant seem to find any solution to it. Is it a defect in Macbook Air?
