PM5 prevents sleep/screensaver-lock on Mac

[michaelbothager]

Hi

This topic has been debated before, but I'm unable to find any solution on the forum.

Mac OS X Version 10.11.6 (15G31)
Photo Mechanic Version 5.0, build 17719 (c8049ca)

Only when PM runs is the screensaver not able to start.

From the system.log (don't know if this helps):
Aug 22 07:44:48 MicMac WindowServer[177]: handle_will_sleep_auth_and_shield_windows: Reordering authw 0x7fc49e116600(2000) (lock state: 3)

Any suggestions about what I can do?

Best regards
Michael
