I am sorry if this is too daft, but... doesn't this point to there simply being something wrong with either the charger or the cable? Have you tried charging it from a PC, possibly with a different cable?
As for PC sleeping, as far as I know, the 5v charge on USB connections is an always-on signal, so sleep mode should not make a difference (with the possibly exception of laptops that might turn themselves off).
Cheers!
