just tried to install it once, but could never get it to work on my system

since the USB wake problem persisted, I tried to switch to VirtualSMC and a different DSDT patching method, but the issue is till there.

You will need to provide a description of the problem.

After a couple of sleep-wake cycles, all USB ports stop working and the system reboots a couple of minutes after wake

Not so sure about your USB configuration...
HS05 is marked internal (UsbConnector=255), but nothing is attached to it!
Does your laptop really have 2x USB2-only ports (HS02, HS03), 2x USB3 ports (HS01/SS01, HS04/SS04)?

You should try FakeSMC.kext instead of VirtualSMC.kext.
You are not using a version of Clover that supports VirtualSMC.kext properly.

ForceKextsToLoad is only for pre-install. You forgot to remove it.
You forgot also to disable hibernation.

You have a bunch of patches in config.plist/ACPI/DSDT/Patches that don't apply to your ACPI set. So you should probably review your hotpatch setup.

HS01=USB3 Left with USB2 device
HS02=USB2 Right 1
HS03=USB2 Right 2
HS04=Type C with USB2 device
HS05=Card Reader
HS06=Webcam
HS08=Bluetooth
SS01=USB3
SS04=Type C

I've been using FakeSMC for quite a while, and the USB wake issue was already there.
I updated to Clover to the latest version now...

You forgot also to disable hibernation.

Think I fixed this

Will look deeper into this tomorrow...

Type-C ports need special values for UsbConnector.
Read the guide.
HS05 in your ioreg shows nothing there (eg. no card reader).

Fixed the Type C connector type to 9 (no switch).
The Card reader only shows if I insert an SD in it.
Attached are debug files with and without an SD Card inserted in the slot.

The Card reader only shows if I insert an SD in it.

I would tend to suggest UsbConnector=0 for that scenario.

Changed HS05 to 0 (instead of 255) but the sleep issue is still there
