Yep, see _'bug_2068'
(http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2068)_. I've realised that
my PC -is- making it into Standby after the specified time, but only for
about half a second - it gets woken up again almost instantly by the
SB's network traffic. However, if there's no subsequent HD activity (ie
I'm not playing anything on the SB), it tries to go into Standby again a
few minutes later - and wakes up again straight away - and this
continues, every few minutes, ad nauseum. I imagine this is pretty
unhealthy for the PC (particularly the hard drives).

Hopefully the bug will be resolved soon (which reminds me, I should
vote for it!) but until then, I have to work around it by preventing
the PC from becoming 'inactive', if my SB is getting power but not
actually being used. I've contemplated trying to use the Execute Script
or PowerSave plugins to generate some HD activity when the SB is idle,
but not actually done anything yet ;)
