Steps to reproduce

see actual behavior.

✔️ Expected Behavior

I was expecting the PC to go to sleep automatically in 15 minutes, per power plan.

❌ Actual Behavior

noted that my PC was not going to sleep automatically, I put it to sleep and it woke to the point that the main monitor (I have 2) activated, but did not open windows. A second time, Windows 11 came fully awake after I had set it to sleep. The main PC didn't shutdown (there's an audible "click" when the UPS shuts off the accessories. This didn't happen) The power plan is set to wake on important timers only. I disabled "Awake" and the problem disappeared and did not recur. I just enabled "awake", restarted and put the PC (Dell XPS) to sleep. The system appeared to sleep (monitors dark) but no "click". within 30 seconds, Win11 had restarted (woke) to a running state with me logged in, the same condition it was in when I selected "Sleep" on the power settings

@davidegiacometti can you please provide your logs?

Additionally, when you put Awake into the Off state, can you show me what powercfg /requests returns?
