How prevent sp4 going to sleep

[Windows Central Question]

Hi,

Even if i set the power option that the machine should never sleep, it still does after 10 minutes or so. Both when plugged in and on battery.

It works to switch the screen off after a selectable number of minutes. This I want to do when listening to streaming radio, but I would like it to stay in that state and not go to sleep.

have you observed that the wifi goes off or the device goes to sleep? can you try an experiment where you are playing locally stored music while screen is locked or off and see what happens?

There's a setting for the bluetooth driver that also affects wifi driver hence the wifi usually goes off
