Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
I use the Steam Machine as a HTPC. I disabled the sleep options in the power settings. However when the device wakes from sleep or is restarted, these settings revert, meaning that when watching a movie/episode, the SM will enter sleep mode after 10 minutes of no input.
Steps for reproducing this issue:
- Disable Sleep settings in Power menu
- Reboot device
- Sleep settings have reverted to 10 minute sleep.
