MacBook Pro 16 keeps restarting in sleep

Hi I've got this error for about a week now and it always happens when the laptop is plugged in to the 87W Apple USB C charger from my old MacBook Pro 15" (2017). It's quite annoying as when I resume from sleep the laptop would boot and I have to reopen my browser windows. If anyone could help I'd appreciate knowing what the issue is, if it's something software or hardware related. Thanks!

Thanks “Old Toad” that workaround seems to work for now.

-Checked “Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off”

-Un Checked “Put hard disk to sleep when possible”

-Un Checked “Enable Power Nap”

Tested several times throughout day and over night and never once crashed/restarted with external display attached.
