Unable to start computer with docking station button while connected to a docking station and laptop lid is closed, but when open, works fine

I am placing a laptop (ThinkPad L530 running Win 7 32bit OS) on a docking station within a cart and placing the laptop inside the cart and closing the lid, then connecting an external monitor to the cart w/ keyboard and mouse outside of the cart.

There are buttons outside of the cart that power the cart and turn the laptop on/off.

The issue I am having is I have to close the laptop to fit it inside of the cart, and when I close the lid the laptop on/off button outside of the cart does not register. When the laptop is open, the button works just fine.

I am assuming there is some sort of power setting that would assist with this issue and was wondering if anyone had any ideas?
