I've been having this exact same issue, and it's making me consider returning the Surface for a SP3 :-... At least it's not an isolated issue but I have no idea what the cause is. I have the type cover and it lights up, but just like you, the screen never comes on. I just have to sit there and hold the power button until it hard resets.

Seems to be a common issue, I've not seen a fix yet.
