Might be too early to tell, but I wrote a script to automatically disable WiFi (actually, the network-manager service) right before suspend and to restart it when opening. You have to make a file in `/etc/pm/sleep.d` with content:
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in suspend) service network-manager stop ;; resume) service network-manager restart ;; *) ;; esac
so far, no issues :)
This worked for me in addition to following this guide to make Ubuntu hibernate on lid close. Haven't had issues since.
I have the same problem on my XPS 13. It was a Windows Signature Edition with Windows 8 from the Microsoft store.
However, I installed and primarily use it with Ubuntu 15.04. I have had multiple times where I have closed the lid and placed the computer in my backpack, only to find it over heating with the caps-lock flashing hours later when I take it out of the bag.
Great tip on resolving the sleep issue with the Dell XPS 13. I bought mine several months ago and noticed right away it was overheating, draining the battery, and possibly could cause internal damage. I will go to a computer repair shop to implement this patch, and hope it fixes the problem until Dell comes with a permanent solution. Thank you and keep up the good work!
I have the exact same issue. It seems to wake from sleep. XPS 13 9350 with windows 10. Till today, Dell support have been unable to resolve this issue. Extremely frustrating and impacts my work.

Try gnome-tweak-tool, it's under the "power" tab.

Has anyone found any solutions?

I found a hack to stop it getting awake when the lid is opened:
sudo -s; echo "LID0 " > /proc/acpi/wakeup
I do it after each reboot, which is very seldom. I do not remember it it ever got awake in the bag since I started doing it.

I have the same issue. About 1/3 times closing the lid causes a kernel panic. I have the latest Kubuntu with Bios A05.

This user seems to have found a fix to the kernel panic: scroll down to "3) Solving issues"
