Have suspend always interrupt

When I have a browser window open with a video playing, linux will not suspend when requested, but will instead show a dialog asking if I want to interrupt.
Is there a way to have it always suspend no matter what, and interrupt any process running?
I have automatically suspend after 1 hour of inactivity set, and I would like for that to never fail.
I am running cinnamon desktop on Linux Mint 18.2

I wouldn't know the answer, but it's very dependent on the distribution and the desktop environment. You should add more informations: distribution, distribution's version, desktop environment (xfce? mate? ...), ... there's no technical reason for this. For example as root doingecho mem > /sys/power/statewould always suspend no matter what (but with some hardware, sometimes, some things can give problems)

I wouldn't know the answer, but it's very dependent on the distribution and the desktop environment. You should add more informations: distribution, distribution's version, desktop environment (xfce? mate? ...), ... there's no technical reason for this. For example as root doingecho mem > /sys/power/statewould always suspend no matter what (but with some hardware, sometimes, some things can give problems)
