The laptop is a recent Dell XPS 15z and the problem is as follows (reproducible about 90% of tries):
- put laptop to sleep using either Start->Sleep or closing the lid
- laptop goes to sleep after about 5 seconds, but instantly wakes again showing a black screen (touching the keyboard or moving the mouse shows the login screen one normally gets after wake)
- login again, put laptop to sleep
- latop stays in sleep mode
output of powercfg -lastwake
after the first instant wake shows the audio controller is responsible. Why would that be, why only the first try, and how to fix this?

1See if there is a power management tab for that audio device in Device Manager, uncheck the box "allow this device to wake computer" – Moab – 2012-06-02T14:42:10.613
@XanderLamkins nice one – stijn – 2012-06-02T17:57:09.963
@Moab checked that already, no power management tab.. – stijn – 2012-06-02T17:57:35.923
1Since you're using
PowerCfg.exe
already, did you try the- DEVICEDISABLEWAKE
switch? – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2012-06-02T20:11:12.283@techie007 devicedisablewake is only for devices listed by wake_armed and the controller is not one of them (only mouse/keyboard are) – stijn – 2012-06-02T20:37:09.570
