Build 28120.3151 consistently wakes from sleep mode with "Night light" enabled
Build 28120.3151 consistently wakes from sleep mode with "Night light" enabled, even during the day. It does not respond to the toggle switch. The only solution is to turn HDR off and on, and then turn Night light on and off.
