Prevent M1 Jump _Client_ from reconnecting while in "Power Nap" (Sleep)

I have an M1 MacBook Air that I use to connect to my Desktop PC, and regularly just close it when I'm done (forgetting to quit out Jump Desktop).

While closed, it wakes up every 15 minutes or so, and takes over the Desktop PC screen, which is frustrating while trying to use the Desktop PC.

Prior MacBooks could have this "Power Nap" disabled, preventing it from doing this, but M1 Macs don't allow you to disable it anymore

Could we have the Jump Desktop Client check for this state and avoid reconnecting?

Thanks!

  Was a solution for this one ever found? This is constantly irritating me as well.

  I frequently remote between a macbook and a mac mini and forget to close out of Jump when I close the macbook down for the evening. The next morning I will be on the mac mini working and the screen will flash and flicker and the output audio device will change due to the "sleeping" macbook constantly reconnecting.

  I have this problem too. It would be nice if there was an option to stop reconnection requests when the other  computer is asleep, or quit / suspend the connection until you log back into that computer - so that it's not logging you out and/or turning off screens at random.
