The best pen testers of 2021 so far
THIS WAS AN XSERVER BUG NOT LINUX MINT. No but seriously why does everyone think that this was Linux Mint only? The original bug was found thanks to a Linux Mint user, but only a few comments down in the original github issue they point to it being an xOrg issue: https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon-screensaver/issues/354

System hangs on resumption
When I resume after suspending, the tty prompt for physlock comes up, as intended. When I enter my password, though, it shows the desktop and lets me move around the mouse, but the keyboard does nothing.

Is it possible to use a virtual keyboard while swaylock / lock screen is active?
I'm not familiar with the PinePhone, but since you're able to use fbkeyboard in VTs, it sounds like physlock might work for you. I just wrote a comment about it in another thread. Unfortunately it's not very amenable to customization.

swaylock alternatives?
I use and recommend physlock. It's the most security-focused screen locking utility I'm aware of. Upon activation, it switches out of the graphical session and into tty0 which helps mitigate both of your issues. It also locks TTY switching to prevent accessing a logged-in TTY while locked, which is something that I don't think most other screen lockers do.
