@spruce: Regardless of what the "internet" might have to say on the subject, it makes absolutely no sense for a user program to prevent the OS from sleeping. Programs cannot read the users mind, if you dont want your computer to sleep, tell it that via the power control settings, otherwise your OS will become a completely unpredictable beast, where any random user program can change fundamental OS behaviors at whim.
I can just see the complaints now. "I started a calibre bulk conversion and closed my laptop lid to drive to the office, and horrors, when I got there my laptop battery was totally drained and I couldn't make an important presentation and I got fired, how dare you mess with the sleep function on my laptop!!!"
@theducks: I agree with BR, the most likely culprit is some stale cached config data.
