Feature Suggestion: Kill SoundKeeper on Workstation Lock, Start it again on Workstation Unlock

I have a feature suggestion to perhaps help with sleep issues. Perhaps an option can be added for SoundKeeper to create two scheduled tasks in Task Scheduler. One to kill the process on workstation lock, to help with automatic sleep issues and another to start SoundKeeper back up on Workstation Unlock.

I've done this manually with two batch files and it works quite well. At least with Windows 11 the screen will automatically shut off if audio is playing allowing the workstation to lock and SoundKeeper to be killed. Once the workstation is unlocked SoundKeeper will start up again. At least on Windows 11 this should help with sleep issues.
