Description
Laptop (Surface Book 2) is not going to sleep. Keybase is on a different virtual desktop, is not the active window, and no animated gifs/emojis are currently in the backlog. There are, however, static picture attachments.
Windows 10

PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> powercfg /REQUESTS

```
```log

Research direction
Start by reproducing the Windows 10 sleep issue while Keybase GUI has static picture attachments, then run `powercfg /REQUESTS` and compare the result with log id cd869633b184087c3e3b4a1c. Done means Keybase.exe no longer holds an indefinite Video Wake Lock and the laptop can sleep.
