Description
MacOS version: 26.1 Tahoe on MacBook Pro
iOS version: 26.1
My devices are MBP M3 and iPhone 15 Pro
Altserver 1.7.2, Altstore 2.2.1
The Altstore is working and is successfully syncing my app from the Altserver running on my Mac. However, when I close the lid to put the Mac into sleep mode and then re-open the lid the Altstore can no longer connect the Altserver. Also when I click on the Altserver icon in the menu bar, there is a delay of around 5 seconds before the Altserver drop down menu appears. If I quit the Altserver and re-start it everything is fine again.
As a workaround I now run a script which kills the Altserver waits 2 seconds and then re-starts Altserver when the Mac comes out of sleep mode.

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Reproduce the AltServer sleep/wake failure on macOS and trace the behavior after reopening the lid; done means AltStore reconnects without restarting AltServer and the menu bar menu opens without the reported delay.
