I put my pc to sleep and it will wake itself up quite quickly

I've been reading about and used command prompt "powercfg -requests" which returns the following:

Code:
C:\Windows\system32>powercfg -requests
DISPLAY:
None.

SYSTEM:
[DRIVER] ASUS Xonar DX Audio Device (PCI\VEN_13F6&DEV_8788&SUBSYS_82751043&REV_0
0\5&1267410f&0&2000E4)
An audio stream is currently in use.
[DRIVER] \FileSystem\srvnet
An active remote client has recently sent requests to this machine.

AWAYMODE:
None.

EXECUTION:
None.

PERFBOOST:
None.

FULLSCREENVIDEO:
None.

I've got "Allow computer to sleep" in multimedia in power options and tried some registry entries from another website.

I don't want to totally disable media streaming because I use it, I just want the PC to sleep and ignore whatever is requesting it.

Never had these problems in windows 7 so I'm sure it's possible some how?
 
Anything here help?

powercfg -lastwake gives me:

Code:
C:\Windows\system32>powercfg -lastwake
Wake History Count - 1
Wake History [0]
  Wake Source Count - 1
  Wake Source [0]

Looks like its my network connection then? Can I disable wake on LAN?
 
Ah ofc, knew I'd seen it somewhere.

Disabled Wake on Lan, will see if that works
