Stops working after extended inactivity

So far as I can tell, after extended inactivity (away for the day or night), my touchpad stops working. Often, it just stops responding to movements, but still registers clicks. My USB mouse works fine. Once it had my cursor in the wrong position on the screen (mouse clicks happened elsewhere, could use buttons animate as I hovered over something else).
I'm running Manjaro with kernel 4.20.3-1, Mate desktop. Running NVidia free drivers. Happened with the proprietary NVidia drivers as well.
Asus ROG Strix GL703V laptop. Restsarting X doesn't solve the problem, the only thing I've found that will do it is a reboot; I'm not even sure it's an mtrack problem, but it seemed similar to issue #74, but the discussion there hasn't helped me.
I haven't noticed any difference in the outputs below immediately after a reboot or when the touchpad has quit working.
I typically don't suspend during the day when I leave, but have noticed the same behavior after resuming from suspended state.
Also, possibly related, the palm detection doesn't always work, but it seems that when it does, it exhibits all the behavior above: it stops responding to everything except clicks.

After further testing, it seems to behave better if I don't leave remmina running, though it does start acting up after resuming from suspension, first with jerky movement, then not responding to movement at all, but clicks still register.
