New vostro 15 7510 laptop

xubuntu 21.04

Sporadically consumes the battery when it should be in standby. 

Sometimes seems to shut down when the battery is fine.

What should I be looking for?  Looking for any help I can get.   I don't see anything obvious in kern.log or syslog

Updating the OS to 21.10 and the Bios to 1.3.0 seems to have solve my problem.

Note that setting the sleep mode to deep (instead of s2idle) did not help, and was actually part of the problem.
