[QUOTE="Vigilant, post: 1609965, member: 334639"] For those interested... the culprit in this case appears to be the Dell connected monitor. (U2713HM) The monitor is connected to the other TB port via DP to TB adapter. When I was previously trouble shooting this I thought by simply turning the monitor off it would eliminate it as a potential source of the problem. Turns out if I physically unplug it from the TB port on the rMBP the problem goes away and everything works, sleeps, as expected... for some reason the Dell is keeping the TB chain active when connected even if it is turned off... go figure!
