sonos on my iMac appears to have stopped my computer/screen sleep & screen saver functions i.e. the display is permanently on. I've tried all the usual system preference options. Any ideas on how to switch the sleep function back on?

    Hi, during the music library setup process the Sonos app requests permission to turn off the sleep settings on the Mac. If the Mac goes to sleep, the shared music library will stop playing on Sonos until you wake it up again.

    They can be turned back on under the Mac's System Preferences > Energy Saver.

      Tried that and it didn't work. I fixed it in the end by uninstalling Sonos and rebooting the computer. I use the Spotify app now rather than Sonos. Thanks for the feedback.
