    Audio Sleep and


    I like Win10 - beautiful graphic and smooth transition from 8.1.
    One issue only.
    I have an audio app. DFX audio enhancer latest update, supposedly compatible with Win10.
    The following happens: when after 20 min the system puts to sleep, the audio from Google Chrome YouTube is muted and the only solution is to restart Windoes.
    All drivers are updated, the speakers are built in with the monitor TV Samsung T24D390.
    Pls notice the silent wake-up only appears id the app DFX audio enhancer is installed. Without that the wake-up is OK.
    Any suggestion?

    Thank you

    :)

  2. Windows 10 wont sleep when audio stream is currently in use

    This question is asked a few times, but I'm not finding any solutions that work.

    Windows 10 for some reason forces a wake at 2:15am to check for updates (UpdateOrchestrator/Reboot task).

    Unfortunately I cannot change that schedule since Windows just overrides my changes.

    So if I leave a program open that might use audio stream (Chrome, IE, Unity 3D) Windows will not automatically return to sleep. Lots of programs use the audio stream and prevent sleep...

    When I check powercfg /requests I am told the an audio stream is currently in use. This happens whether the audio driver is Realtek High Definition Audio or Logitech G930 Audio.

    If I add an override to the requests with powercfg /requestsoverride driver "driver name" SYSTEM the sleep issue persists.

    So, basically I have to wake up at 2am every night to force my computer to sleep because Microsoft decided to run a scheduled task at that preposterous time and they decided to not address this common sleep issue (search google for it, you'll see 100s of
    results).

    Microsoft: Just add an option that audio stream does not prevent sleep. Is it really that hard to address issues that so many of your customers have?

    PS - Drivers are up to date for both of these items. I've tried resetting power scheme as well. I've tried full reinstall of the drivers. This is a Windows power settings issue, this is not a driver issue.

    Audio driver preventing sleep mode/audio playing while in sleep mode windows 10

    Hi David,

    Sleep mode uses very little power and once you wake up your computer, you're instantly back to where you left off. To turn off audio playing while on sleep mode, you can try to turn off audio jack sensing and the mic on the Realtek audio manager app.

    Update us with the result.

    Audio Sleep and

    Just an updating and some finding.
    First of all: the Audio enhancer software DFX is not part of the problem.
    The problem rests with HDMI audio of a monitor TV Samsumg after sleep. The Audio service is not resumed after sleep. Before the upgrading to Win 8.1. in the same computer the resumption odf audio was regular. As now, audio restart after rebooting or i have to turn off the monitor tv before sleep, a kind of annoyance.

    Any suggestion?

    Funny you should mention this - I get the exact same.
    Running audio & video via HDMI out of an ATI card into Samsung TV, worked like a charm on Win8 / 8.1 with no problems.
    Now, when the screen blanks and I wait a few moments, there is no audio and the only option is to reboot this problem away.

    I ran into this problem when trying to stream NetFlix and got an error about "unable to stream DRM protected media"
