Windows 11 host cannot suspend Linux guest

I run VMWare Workstation Pro 16.2 on Windows 11. Before the upgrade to Windows 11 I was able to suspend the Linux guest and resume it later. With Windows 11 as host this is not possible anymore. Whenever I try I get an error messages (attached) and the guest crashes. Hyper V and WSL 2 are enabled on the host.

Is there really nobody else with the same issue?

I can now confirm that Hyper-V is definitely the culprit. As soon as I start Windows without Hyper-V support suspending the guest OS works again as expected. For the time being I configured my PC to dualboot Windows with and without Hyper-V support.
