Default Another possible Pro Tools 12.4 bug - garbled audio after screen saver

Hi,

Whenever my Mac goes in to screen saver mode (standard built-in screensaver OS X Yosemite) it does something to Pro Tools - exiting the screen saver leaves Pro Tools producing horrendous garbled audio during playback. The only fix is to quit and restart Pro Tools after each screen saver period, and/or manually disable screen saver whilst using the software. Is this a Pro Tools bug? Anyone else getting this?

If I am not mistaken PT has alway recommended disabling screen saver and put to sleep etc.

What he said. All these power-saving protocols should be disabled.
