It's a bug in boost which spotify uses: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/11368
The guy with the pull request[0] that fixes the bug is team lead for Spotify's desktop client.

I like that they tried to use ReactOS and WINE as a reference!
Back when I was a kid we called sleep() and we liked it.
Thank you so much for posting this. My PC suddenly started waking up from sleep, I couldn't figure out why (powercfg or the event log were no help) and it has been driving me crazy. Looks like Spotify was the cause!
I wonder if rohitab.com/apimonitor would see some kind of call that could be used identify Spotify as the culprit. More and more these days I'm having to turn to debuggers and tracers to find out what my computer is really doing.
Actually I noticed it's spotify by using powercfg lastwake, then googled around and found that they have a wake up timer set up.
But took me a while, thought it was a network, then mouse.. nothing in event log.

Yeah, started happening to me last week (roughly?)
Seems like either a shitty business decision, or really terrible QA.

That seems a bit unreasonable. How many people have as part of their tests "Put the computer to sleep and make sure we don't accidentally wake it up"? I could understand if they had some hardware or software with that specific feature, but in general, it would be a waste of time.
I guess to have their p2p streaming active? Or do they do some computation on clients? Either way, it's very shady.
Or it's just a bug.

"Never attribute to malice..." and all that.

I heard that spotify shut down their p2p streaming in April last year.
I don't think most end users were even aware that spotify was using their users' computers and upstream bandwidth, though. I wouldn't be surprised if spotify is doing something else now under the covers, even though this sleep issue seems to be just a bug with boost.

Why would you want to sleep when you can listen to Spotify some more?
