Computer keeps 'restarting because of a problem': setPowerState timed out?
When I leave my 2019 MacBook Pro (on macOS Catalina 10.15.3 Beta (19D49f)) for a while I find that when I return, rather than just logging in again, I have to 'boot up' the laptop.
I then get a message 'your computer restarted because of an error', which if I share it, produces the following stack trace:
panic(cpu 2 caller 0xffffff800c623e57): "AppleGFXHDADriver::setPowerState(0xffffff8043b75200 : 0xffffff7f90076bde, 0 -> 1) timed out after 10231 ms"@/BuildRoot/Library/Caches/com.apple.xbs/Sources/xnu/xnu-6153.80.8.0.1/iokit/Kernel/IOServicePM.cpp:5302

I have the same issue with Catalina and my 13" MacBook Pro (2019), however, I don't share any of your third-party Kernel extensions (kext).
AppleGFXHDADriver is a driver for audio over HDMI and Displayport (therefore, also Displayport over TB3/USB-C).
I believe this is a bug which might be caused by using an external monitor. Certainly my experiments point to this because when I unplug my monitor before putting my MacBook to sleep I have yet to come across the issue.
I am actually doing more experiments e.g is the order devices go to sleep a culprit. So will update this post if I have anymore information.
Also I would encourage you to use the feedback assistant app for macOS and post the crash report and any more information regarding your setup. The more people complain and report the more likely Apple will look into the issue further.
For anyone here, know that I feel your pain. This was happening to me for a number of months. For me, it was disconnecting from an external monitor. I finally fixed it by resetting the SMC — https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295
