No idea what's going on, will continue to post updates here.
This continues to be the situation.

What I've found is that, if I eject the Kobo from my PC, but leave it charging - if the Kobo goes to sleep while plugged in, THEN it will freeze.

This does not happen if I plug it into the PC but don't let it connect, so it's only ever charging. And there are no issues with freezing if the Kobo is charging from the wall.

I think there are several problems people are experiencing with very similar symptoms (I don't mean Madz's issues, that's pretty different and more severe), but at this point I'm convinced mine is something to do with connecting to the PC/Calibre, not something caused by a messed-up ebook file.
