sleep prevented by Google Chrome

You should ask yourself if you need Chrome. It is a known memory hog and some of its extensions need to be watched carefully. Coreaudiod could be disabled.

Use Safari and Firefox. (You always need 2 browsers minimum.)

Basically Chrome Prevent my mac to sleep

What should I do now? Is there any fix ?

FWIW, Chrome is not preventing your Mac from sleeping. As you can see from my results, there can be multiple processes listed next to sleep and my Mac sleeps just fine.

System-wide power settings:

Currently in use:

standby 1

Sleep On Power Button 1

womp 0

halfdim 1

hibernatefile /var/vm/sleepimage

powernap 0

gpuswitch 2

autorestart 0

networkoversleep 0

disksleep 0

sleep 0 (sleep prevented by apsd, coreaudiod, coreaudiod, coreaudiod, UserEventAgent, backupd, backupd)

autopoweroffdelay 28800

hibernatemode 0

autopoweroff 1

ttyskeepawake 1

displaysleep 10

standbydelay 10800

As you can see I'm not running Chrome.

I think you are asking about battery drain issues so I would check the Energy Saver settings in System Preferences.

What I was trying to explain was despite the line saying "sleep prevented by", it doesn't actually prevent a Mac from sleeping. I have 5 Macs and they all go to sleep regardless of the line saying sleep is being prevented. I don't know what that line indicates but it doesn't mean a Mac won't sleep.

Stop using Chrome.
