I just got a new laptop and I can't for the life of me prevent it from going to sleep while playing youtube audio on Firefox.
Powercfg -requests shows the audio driver is preventing the laptop from sleeping but it still goes to sleep after the specified time in power options.
Tried both on battery and while charging. Tried both on Silent and High Performamce.
Is my laptop somehow overriding the OS power settings?

Have you installed the Armoury Crate apps? I have F15 (11 Gen, Intel i5). And faced similar issue. As normally I want my laptop never sleep/hibernate mode and so to do that I disable all sleep function from power management settings of Windows. But Armoury Crate prevent that settings and they works with it's own settings. So from Armoury Crate settings, you need to change the pwoer option too. I use Performance option with or without charging mode. It fixed the issue and I can keep my laptop on for hours.
