I'm not sure that chronyd should be performing this function. It seems to me 
that this is something macOS should already be doing. Perhaps a bugreport or 
feature request to Apple is in order?

Of course it's possible that by having usurped the NTP function of Apple's 
pretty much undocumented timed daemon, chronyd is in fact stopping this from 
happening. I'm unsure on how to test that hypothesis.

I'm quite happy to include a sleep detection launchd daemon with chronycontrol, 
which already has the mechanisms for installation/removal/starting/stopping of 
privileged programs.
