Console after wake up?

Forgive me for the vague title, I was not sure how to describe the issue. I got FreeBSD 14 installed on my Thinkpad T14 recently, when I wake up the device from sleep I see the bare console with a login prompt a few seconds before XFCE loads (into the screensaver/lockscreen) it's not a big issue just curious to know why this is happening and if there's some way to fix this.
 
grep -v \# /etc/ttys

If you sleep the computer whilst your desktop environment is at ttyv8, it's normal to see a different console – ttyv0 – during wake from sleep.
 
I'm experiencing this on my Thinkpad T480, too. For example I will put the laptop to sleep from X which is running on ttyv8, and once I open the laptop it will show ttyv0 during whatever processes are happening before eventually returning to X on ttyv8. It's not a huge issue but I'm also curious why this happens and if there is any way to return to this prior X session without the detour.
