[SOLVED] Audio driver keeps pc awake

[migoholst]

Hey, I have an audio driver that won't let my computer go to sleep or hibernate.
It's the only thing that shows up with "powercfg /requests".
And i can't find a way to stop it without closing it.

Do you guy's have any ideas what to do?

Is it being started at boot up? Look in Task Manager > Startup. If enabled , disable it there. Right click to to make the change.

It was. I tried turning it off and rebooting the PC. but it did not help, the PC still won't go to sleep🙁

Dig in a bit deeper:

Key is to first identify what is actually preventing "sleep" and then, secondly, determine if that can be disabled or removed.
