Sleep No Longer Works On Mac mini 2018 After 12.2 Upgrade

Applied the 12.2 update to my Mac mini i7 2018. Sleep no longer works.


I reset SMC and NVRAM. Did Not Fix.


So I completely erased the disk and performed a clean install of 12.2. With no other software installed the system can not be put to sleep nor will it go to sleep automatically. Worked fine with 12.1. Definitely an OS problem. The system starts to go to sleep but immediately wakes up in 5 seconds or so.

With the Apple Keyboard turned off and the Apple Mouse turned off, I connected a Dell wired mouse to the unit. I can now command to sleep OK and it stays asleep. So something in Bluetooth is messed up.
