I believe I have found a solution to my screen issue when setting it to sleep.
The clue was that after some hours when the screen would no longer come back on when pressing it, if I ssh'd to my pi, after a while I could get the screen back. When doing this, it would take a few goes to get the ssh connection going. It would still fail again later, but at least hopefully that meant something.
I stopped thinking it was a software problem and started thinking it was a hardware problem.
I changed power supplies, but that made no difference.
I then started changing wifi dongles. I switched out the Edimax dongle and tried a couple more. Finally i used my Comfast dongle. So far so good. 14 hours going strong. Hopefully I don't have to retract this post again tomorrow.
Edit:. Hi Frank, thanks for your post below. I did speak too soon again as it wasn't working in the morning. I did have out go all day which was the longest yet. Looking forward to a solution when it is available as I am really liking the music box.
